https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279786 Section 428 of the Code of Criminal Procedure does not apply to persons convicted and sentenced by Court-Martial under the Army Act, 1950. The Army Act is a complete and self-contained code governing offence, trial, punishment, confirmation, execution and remission, and Section 167 specifically fixes when Court-Martial imprisonment begins. Section 5 of the Code preserves special laws, while Section 475 shows that Parliament distinguished ordinary criminal trials from Court-Martial proceedings. Because Court-Martial proceedings are not conducted under the Code, the set-off mechanism in Section 428 is unavailable. en-us Wed, 29 Apr 1987 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 05 Apr 2019 09:54:51 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279786 Section 428 of the Code of Criminal Procedure does not apply to persons convicted and sentenced by Court-Martial under the Army Act, 1950.
