Section XIX. If it shall appear to the Judge of the said Court that the verdict of Jurors be manifestly contrary

XIX. If it shall appear to the Judge of the said Court that the verdict of Jurors be manifestly contrary to evidence, or that the trial is otherwise insufficient, the Judge, instead of passing sentence on the accused person or declaring him acquitted, as the case may be, may certify the same to the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, and the said Lieutenant-Governor may either order a new trial before another Jury or acquit the accused person, as he shall think fit.
