Police can’t curtail freedom of citizen for highlighting corruption by member of ruling party: Calcutta High Court

On the date of arrest of the petitioner’s husband, the Court said,

“The act of the police in fixing the date of appearance on 1st July, 2024, but arresting him on 30th June, 2024 on the date the notice under Section 41A of the CrPC was issued, appears to be over-jealous act of the police officer.”

The Court eventually directed the police to immediately release the man.

Given the dispute regarding the place of arrest, the Court directed that the CCTV footage of the police station from June 30 be preserved and produced when requested.

The matter will be heard next on July 10.
