india ๐จ Police without written arrest grounds face inquiry
The Supreme Court ruled that police officers must face departmental enquiry if they arrest someone without providing written grounds. This ruling was made by Justice Ujjal Bhuyan and Justice Atul S Chandurkar on September 21. The Court observed that the arrest of Jaskaranjit Singh, related to sexual assault allegations, was illegal for this reason. Any re-arrest requires furnishing grounds and getting magistrate permission first. If the officer fails, they must face action, with superiors assigning new investigation duties. ๐ฎ
