Section 113: Remand.

(1) If from the absence of a witness, or from any other reasonable cause recorded in the minutes the Court considers it advisable to adjourn the preliminary investigation and the accused is not admitted to bail, the Court may, by warrant, from time to time, remand the accused for a reasonable time, not exceeding eight clear days at any one time, to some prison or other place of security. (2) If the remand is for not more than three clear days, the Court may by word of mouth, order the officer or person in whose custody the accused is, or any other fit officer or person, to continue to keep the accused in his custody, and to bring him up at the time appointed for the commencement or continuance of the said investigation. During remand the Court may, nevertheless, order the accused to be brought before it. (3) Where the Magistrate who commenced or continued the preliminary investigation is unable for any sufficient reason to continue it after an adjournment, it shall not be necessary for his successor to re-commence such investigation unless it appears to him that the case is one upon which he should himself adjudicate under section 6 of the Courts Act, 1965.
