<p>BNS Cl. 48 expands the meaning of abetment to include abetment by persons outside of India without and beyond India of offences committed in India.</p>



<p><br>Order for custody and disposal of property pending trial in certain cases</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>The courts in India are authorised to take custody of any property that is produced before it, during the investigation, inquiry, or trial. CI.497, BNSS, has introduced a few provisions to regulate the conditions of custody and subsequent disposal of the seized property. First, the court must prepare a statement containing description of the property produced before it within fourteen days of its production. Second, photographs and, if needed, videography of the property must also be taken. These photos and videos may be used as evidence in the course of the investigation, inquiry, or trial. Third, within thirty days of the preparation of such a statement, the court must order the disposal or destruction of property. These provisions will greatly reduce the burden of keeping seized articles in PSs, which in many cases resulted in occupying large tracts of land.</li>
