death in police custody

Hello,

 Section 176 (1) A — provides for the police station to inform the nearest judicial magistrate about a death in custody. Under this provision, the magistrate is empowered to hold inquests by ordering a post mortem of the body within two days. On the basis of the same provision, the magistrate can direct an inquiry thereafter.

Regards,
