Death of accused

In a warrant trial, the accused dies before the charges have been framed.  Yes, the case abates against the accused.  But, under what provision of law?

Death of accused during trial - Proceedings will abate - Legal heirs cannot be prosecuted. (Sham LalVs Raj Kumar Aggarwal) 2002(2) CIVIL COURT CASES 370 (P&H) : 2002(2) CRIMINAL COURT CASES 505 (P&H) : 2002 (2) ISJ (BANKING) 0083

Before or after filing chargesheet if accused dies, then as per provisions of 173 Cr.P.C. (prior to issuance of chargesheet)report of Abetted summery is sent to Court as a Final Report, and during trial if accused dies, then after report court abets the case.

His case should be given a decent burial in his grave yard.
