https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=463854 Section 21 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 is construed to mean that a Special Executive Magistrate remains an Executive Magistrate for the purposes of the Code and may exercise the powers attached to that office. The provision creates a distinct appointment mechanism for special areas or functions, while the latter part of the section permits additional powers to be conferred for the special task assigned. On that reading, the State Government was not required to confer the power under Section 107 separately, because the appointee already held the status of Executive Magistrate. en-us Thu, 22 Nov 1990 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 19 Sep 2025 11:53:11 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=463854 Section 21 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 is construed to mean that a Special Executive Magistrate remains an Executive Magistrate for the purposes of the Code and may exercise the powers attached to that office.
