Madras High Court Criticizes TN Police Over Arrest Procedures
The Madras High Court has criticized the Tamil Nadu police for failing to provide written grounds for arrest in a cheating case. The court granted bail to a man accused of cheating and non-refund of student caution deposits, stating that the police's failure to furnish written grounds for arrest constituted a dereliction of duty. Justice N. Ramesh also reportedly questioned the police's assumption that the petitioner, identified as a North Indian, might abscond.
