With the development of the East India Company empire in India, the jury system was implemented inside a dual system of courts: In Presidency Towns (Calcutta, Madras, Bombay), there were Crown Courts and in criminal cases juries had to judge British and European people (as a privilege) and in some cases Indian people; and in the territories outside the Presidency Towns (called \u201cmoffussil\u201d), there were Company Courts (composed with Company officials) without jury to judge most of the cases implying indigenous people.\nAfter the Crown Government of India (Raj) adopted the Indian Penal Code (1860) and the Indian Code of Criminal Procedure (1861, amended in 1872, 1882, 1898), the criminal jury was obligatory only in the High Courts of the Presidency Towns; elsewhere, it was optional and rarely used. According sections 274 and 275 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, the jury was composed from 3 (for smaller offences judged in session courts) to 9 (for severe offences judges in High Courts) men; and when the accused were European or American, at least half of the jurors had to be European or American men.\nThe jury found no place in the 1950 Indian Constitution, and it was ignored in many Indian states. The Law Commission recommended its abolition in 1958 in its 14th Report.Jury trials were abolished in India by a very discrete process during the 1960s, finishing with the 1973 Code of Criminal Procedure, which is still in force today.\nIt has been argued that the 8:1 acquittal of Kawas Nanavati in K. M. Nanavati vs State of Maharashtra, which was overturned by higher courts on the grounds that the jury was misled by the presiding judge and were susceptible to media and public influence, was the reason. A study by Elisabeth Kolsky argues that many \u201cperverse verdicts\u201d were delivered by white juries in trial of \u201cEuropean British subjects\u201d charged with murder, assault, confinement of Indians.\nThe Indian Judiciary administers a common law system in which customs, precedents and legislation, all codify the law of the land. The Constitution of India is the supreme legal document of its jurisdiction which extends throughout the territory of the country. It has in part, inherited the legacy of the legal system established by the then colonial powers and the princely states since the mid-19th century, and has partly retained characteristics of practices from the ancient and medieval times of legal jurisdiction." } ] ]
