<h1>Joint Trials Allowed Under Section 246: Conditions for Charging Multiple Individuals in Same Case Explained</h1> Section 246 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, outlines the conditions under which multiple individuals may be charged and tried jointly. These include persons accused of the same offense in the same transaction, those involved in abetment or attempts, individuals committing similar offenses within a year, and those involved in crimes such as theft or extortion. It also covers offenses related to counterfeit coins and stolen property. The statute allows joint trials if the accused request it in writing and if the court deems it non-prejudicial and expedient.
