Hi Experts,
wife filed complaint and police register FIR under 498a , 406 and 323 , 506 etc.
Wife lives at Place X and filed complaint at Police Station X.
Husbands lives 20 km away from Place X , Say Place Y.
Police arrests husband and also search his locker and house both at place Y.
Do the IO not flouted Crpc 165?
- Whenever an officer in charge of police station or a police officer making an investigation has reasonable grounds for believing that anything necessary for the purposes of an investigation into any offence which he is authorised to investigate may be found in any place within the limits of the police station of which he is in charge, or to which he is attached, and that such thing cannot in his opinion be otherwise obtained without undue delay, such officer may, after recording in writing the grounds of his belief and specifying in such writing, so far as possible, the thing for which search is to be made, search, or cause search to be made, for such thing in any place within the limits of such station.
- A police officer proceeding under Sub-Section (1), shall, if practicable, conduct the search in person.
IO never took permission from any senior to search area beyond his Jursidiction. Just bundled Husband from his office, then moves to place Y for Locker opening and also reaches house to search house.
Was Io correct in his search mechanism?
Kindly guide what action I can take against these bribed souls.
