<h1>Section 366: Criminal Trials Open to Public, In-Camera for Rape Cases; Publication Restricted Without Permission</h1> Section 366 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, mandates that criminal court proceedings be open to the public, except when the presiding judge or magistrate decides otherwise. In cases involving rape or certain offenses under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, or the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012, trials must be conducted in camera, preferably by a woman judge or magistrate. Publication of proceedings from such trials is prohibited without court permission, though the ban may be lifted for rape cases while ensuring the confidentiality of the parties involved.
