If the person has been convicted and sentenced to nominal punishment or has been acquitted after a colourable trial in a foreign court, and if he is afterwards found here in India, the Central Government might give the sanction to prosecute him in an Indian court for the same offence. The rule regarding sanction for the prosecution prevents a person from being tried twice for the commission of the same offence and ensures that person is not able to take advantage of a sham or colourable trial in a foreign country in order to avoid being tried here for that offence. The Central Government before granting sanction under Section 188 would take into account all aspects of the case. A Division Bench of this court in Mohamed V. State of Kerala (1994)1 KLT 464 held that police can investigate into a crime committed in a foreign country.
