of <h1>Magistrates Can Halt Summons-Case Proceedings Under Section 281, 2023; Acquittal Possible After Key Evidence Recorded</h1> Section 281 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, grants a Magistrate of the first class, or any other Judicial Magistrate with the Chief Judicial Magistrate's prior approval, the authority to halt proceedings in summons-cases not initiated by a complaint. The Magistrate can stop proceedings at any stage, provided reasons are documented. If proceedings are stopped after principal witnesses' evidence is recorded, a judgment of acquittal may be pronounced. In other instances, the accused is released, which equates to a discharge.
