 "summary": "The Patna High Court (Ranchi bench) partly allowed the writ of two TISCO Assistant Security Officers detained at Sidhgora police station on 25 May 1990. The court held there was no reasonable cause for their detention, for refusing them bail, or for handcuffing and roping them in public view outside the magistrate's court, finding respondent No. 4's action smacked of malice. It condemned the officers' conduct as a gross violation of fundamental rights. The court directed the State to pay Rs 20,000 as exemplary costs and to hold an inquiry fixing individual liability of respondent Nos. 3 and 4 (or others), with recovery from those found liable. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.",
