This query is : Resolved
Sir sec 265 K of Cr.P.C. (Plea of bargaining) envisage as "Statement or facts stated by accused under application of plea of bargaining, shall not be used for any other purpose except for the purpose of this chapter"
Sir my query is -
(1)if no solution is made out after bargaining, whether accused can be convicted even under this chapter on basis of his statement.
(2) what is the impact of reduced punishment or penalty after bargaining, on the character of accused. He would be called convicted or not?
