Chapter VIII - RECIPROCAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR ASSISTANCE IN CERTAIN MATTERS AND PROCEDURE FOR ATTACHMENT AND FORFEITURE OF PROPERTY (From Section 111 to Section 124)
Revision powers permit discretionary appellate review, subject to hearing rights and a bar where appeal remedies are available. High Court has discretionary revision powers to exercise appellate or sessional powers over proceedings whose records it calls for or learns of, subject to tie disposal rules when judges are equally divided. Orders prejudicial to an accused require an opportunity to be heard, and the Court cannot convert acquittals into convictions. Where an appeal lies and none is brought, revision is barred for the party who could have appealed; an erroneously filed revision application may be treated as an appeal if necessary in the interests of justice.
