Cap. 9 Art. 434Liability to further proceedings on fresh evidence.

Every accused person, whose arrest has not been ordered by the Attorney General under the provision of sub-article (3) of the last preceding article, or who has been discharged for want of presentation of an indictment, shall always remain liable to fresh proceedings, to be regularly commenced before the Court of

Magistrates, whenever fresh evidence becomes available.

The expression "fresh evidence" means evidence which at the time of the discharge of the accused, did not exist, or was not known to those who were entitled to prosecute.
