Confession of time barred offence

  

Dear friends! Let us share our views on applicability of principles of limitation in criminal matters. Under civil law satisfying a time barred claim is not barred. The principle is: only remedy is barred and right does not extinguishes.

In a criminal case where an accused surrenders and confesses and prays for punishment   to him for an offence, which has  become time barred u/s 468 Cr.P.C. , whether his application is maintainable?

Section 469 to 473 Cr.P.C will operate and can come forward for rescue.
