confirmation of death sentence

Sessions court is subordinate to high court.  Once high court confirms a death sentence, the sessions court cannot change it or revise it. 

can sessions court not gve confirmation of death sentence to the high court??

Sessions court can pass death sentence, but that should be confirmed by high court.

In cases of reference made u/s 366 of Cr.P.C. for confirmation of death sentence, considering the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure in relation to powers of the High Court conferred under sections 367, 368 of the Code, the sessions trial could not be said to be concluded unless the reference is answered by the High Court. In other words, the proceedings of the sessions trial continue till the reference made to the High Court by the Sessions Court is finally disposed of.

 MR.  R.R. KRISHNAA   HAS    GIVEN    RIGHT    ANSWER.  I   AGREE    WITH   HIM.

your question is 'wheather the power of high court in regard to death sentence can be waived by the district court?' am i Right? it's simplest answer is 'no'.

Before death sentence, highcourt's confirmation is compulsary; the jail authority must send the matter (death sentence) to high court for confirmation.

The accused has also right to pyay at HC.

Dear All,

I concur with Arup.
