Process of criminal trial
The Sessions Court at the district level deals with criminal matters. Magistrates take cognizance of the offence and examine the case; then forward the case to the Sessions Court. The trials in this court are done from Sections 22 to 237.
1. The prosecutor opens the case
The prosecutor presents the opening lines and explains the charges on the accused and the crime he/she committed before the Sessions Court. The prosecutor must also state the evidence on the basis of which the person accused can be proved guilty.
2. Discharge
If the judge sees that there is no sufficient evidence to proceed against the accused, the case is discharged and the accused is freed.
3. Framing of charge
If the judge finds sufficient evidence, then the charges are framed and the case goes on trial. If the case is out of the Court’s jurisdiction, then the judge transfers the case to Judicial Magistrate First Class or Chief Judicial Magistrate.
4. Explaining the charge
The charges framed are explained and the judge asks whether the accused wants to plead guilty.
5. Conviction
If the accused pleads guilty, then he/she is given the sentence. If the accused does not plead guilty, he/she will be tried in court. The judge fixes a date of hearing wherein the witness/witnesses will be present and the case goes on trial.
6. Collection of evidence
During the trial, evidence is collected in the presence or in the absence of the accused. In case the court dispenses the presence of the accused, evidence is taken in his/her pleader’s presence.
7. Witness examination
Once evidence is taken, the witness or witnesses are examined and cross-examined.
8. Recording of evidence
The judge records evidence given by each witness.
9. Judgement
After examining the evidence, witnesses’ testimonials, statements by the prosecuting party and the defense party, the judge gives his/her decision. If the defense fails, the accused is held guilty and convicted. If the prosecution fails, the accused is proven innocent and acquitted.
Proving a crime
It is on the onus of the prosecution to prove a crime. It should be proved that the accused is guilty beyond any reasonable doubt. Even a single doubt is enough for the court to acquit the accused.
The burden of proof is different in civil litigation and in criminal litigation. In the former, the case is proved on preponderance of probabilities, which is easier, while in the latter, the accused can reap the benefit of doubt, so it is more difficult to discharge the burden of proof in this case.
It is here that the importance of a lawyer comes to the scene.
The prosecuting lawyer is the one who is involved in the task of proving that the accused is guilty.
The defense lawyer is the one who is involved in the task of proving that the accused is innocent.
