Report No. 78
6.6. Recommendation to amend section 436(1), proviso, Cr. P.C.-
In the Explanation1 recommended by us to be added to section 436(1), proviso, we have deliberately used the word 'release' instead of the word 'discharge' which at present occurs in the proviso, since, in our opinion, the word 'discharge' as used in the Code has a particular connotation. The appropriate word, in our opinion, is 'release'. We also recommend that in the existing proviso, the would 'discharge' should be replaced by the word 'release'.
