Magistrates may detain and forward accused persons to the Special Court, which exercises commensurate remand and cognizance powers; it may take cognizance on police reports or complaints without committal. The Special Court may try related offences together and may, at its discretion, conduct summary trials for certain offences subject to statutory sentence limits and a provision to convert to regular trial procedure when required.
