Chapter VIII - RECIPROCAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR ASSISTANCE IN CERTAIN MATTERS AND PROCEDURE FOR ATTACHMENT AND FORFEITURE OF PROPERTY (From Section 111 to Section 124)
Procedure for offences affecting administration of justice permits courts to inquire, record findings and refer complaints to a magistrate. When a Court deems an inquiry into an offence affecting the administration of justice expedient, it may after preliminary inquiry record a finding, make a written complaint and send it to a Magistrate of the first class; take security for the accused's appearance or, if non-bailable and necessary, send the accused in custody to that Magistrate; and bind over persons to appear and give evidence. Where the Court has not made or rejected a complaint, the subordinate Court may exercise these powers. Complaints must be signed by an authorised officer, with 'Court' as defined in section 215.
