Code Of Criminal Procedure Act (No. 15 of 1979) - Sect 168

When trial may proceed on altered charge immediately.

168. If the alteration made under section 167 is such that proceeding immediately with the trial is not likely in the opinion of the court to prejudice the accused in his defence or the prosecutor in the conduct of the case, the court may in its discretion after such alteration has been made, proceed with the trial as if the altered indictment or charge had been the original indictment or charge.
