 INTRODUCTION
Whenever any Court or any officer in charge of a police station considers that the production
of any document or other thing is necessary or desirable for the purposes of any investigation,
inquiry, trial or other proceeding under this Code by or before such Court or officer, such
Court may issue a summons, or such officer a written order, to the person in whose
possession or power such document or thing is believed to be, requiring him to attend and
produce it, or to produce it, at the time and place stated in the summons or order.
Any person required under this section merely to produce a document or other thing shall be
deemed to have complied with the requisition if he causes such document or thing to be
produced instead of attending personally to produce the same.
If any document, parcel or thing in the custody of a postal or telegraph authority is, in the
opinion of the District Magistrate, Chief Judicial Magistrate, Court of Session or High Court
wanted for the purpose of any investigation, inquiry, trial or other proceeding under this
Code, such Magistrate or Court may require the postal or telegraph authority, as the case may
be, to deliver the document, parcel or thing to such person as the Magistrate or Court directs.
If any such document, parcel or thing is, in the opinion of any other Magistrate, whether
Executive or Judicial, or of any Commissioner of police or District Superintendent of Police,
