Reply by LawRato
The legal heirs of the deceased accused would have to file an application under Section 452 CrPC since upon the death of the accused, the case against him will abate. Section 452 CrPC is a provision that deals with the order for the disposal of property at the conclusion of the trial. It empowers the court to make such order as it thinks fit for the disposal, by destruction, confiscation or delivery to any person claiming to be entitled to possession thereof or otherwise, of the case property or document produced before it or in its custody. The court may order the delivery of any property to any person on such conditions as it thinks fit.
