In any other case, the officer in charge of the prison shall, upon delivery of the Court’s order, cause the person named therein to be taken to the Court so as to be present at the time mentioned in such order, and shall cause him to be kept in custody in or near the Court until he has been examined or until the Court authorises him to be taken back to the prison in which he is confined or detained.
Plain English Summary
Directs the Jail Superintendent to transport the prisoner to court on the appointed date under secure custody, ensuring continuous detention in the court lockup until examination is complete or return is authorized.
Key Legal Elements
- Custodial Obligation: Unbroken legal and physical custody during court transit.
- Detention in Court Lockup (Bakshikhana): Kept in courtroom lockup until called to the stand.
- Formal Discharge Order: Requires court authorization before returning the prisoner to jail.
Practical Note
Managing Custodial Trial Coordination: When a prisoner is produced under Rule 6, coordinate immediately with the Court Reader and Naib Court to ensure that the prisoner's evidence is recorded first on the board to allow the police escort to return them safely to jail before sunset lock-up.
