BNSS Section 193 | Acceptance of Untrace Report Renders Court Functus Officio, Barred from Directing Police Action: Delhi HC
The Delhi High Court held that once a magistrate accepts an untrace or cancellation report under BNSS Section 193, the judicial function concludes, leaving the court without authority to summon police officials or direct departmental action. This ruling reinforces the finality of judicial proceedings post-report acceptance, limiting judicial oversight of police investigations after closure.
