Recently the parliament has passed an amendment to the section 138 of NIA. Which states that the courts may direct the accused to pay an interim compensation of 20%. And the compensation should be paid within the period of 90 days. Now i have some doubts regarding this provision which i want the esteemed lawyers in the forum to help me through.
1, What will happen if the accused to failed to produce the compensation in stipulated time ? because in that amendment there's nothing specific given regarding the course of actions
I will be grateful if you can tell me what should be done from our part if it is exceeding the 90 days and i also wanted to know whether the courts will take any action on him ? if yes then what kind of actions ?
