Section 73 bans publishing court material on sexual offences without permission; exceptions for High Court and Supreme Court judgments.

Section 73 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, prohibits printing or publishing any material related to court proceedings concerning sexual offences without prior court permission. Violating this provision can result in imprisonment for up to two years and a fine. However, publishing judgments from the High Court or Supreme Court is excluded from this prohibition and does not constitute an offence under this section.
