Sorry Mr Rangababu

Discharge petition can be filed at any point of time before judgment is pronounced. The reason is some things may crop up during the examination of witnesses for prosecution which will help the accused to seek discharge.

Discharge application can only be made when section 207 is complied with and, before judgement is pronounced.
