https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=303586 Article 20(3) protects against compelled self-incrimination only when a person is already an accused of an offence, so a preliminary public examination under section 45G does not attract that protection merely because answers may later be used adversely. The provision is described as operating at the stage of a prima facie inquiry into whether public examination should be ordered, without requiring a full trial at that stage. The phrase "acts or omissions" is read broadly to include management conduct causing loss to the banking company, not only fraudulent or criminal acts, and the proviso to section 45G(2) requires only an opportunity to show cause before such an order is made. en-us Wed, 11 Mar 1964 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 30 Jul 2022 17:28:52 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=303586 Article 20(3) protects against compelled self-incrimination only when a person is already an accused of an offence, so a preliminary public examination under section 45G does not attract that protection merely because answers may later be used adversely.
