 "summary": "The Calcutta High Court (Justice Suvra Ghosh) ordered the State to pay Rs 50,000 within seven days to a Suti man @ a Suti man for 30 days of admittedly illegal detention. It was the admitted position that the petitioner, who had no nexus whatsoever with Suti PS Case No.404/2025 dated 15 April 2025 (though accused in other cases), was kept in custody in that case, with the State attributing it to inadvertent clerical mistake and unintentional error. The Court held such faultless 30-day custody unacceptable, granted compensation citing D.G. & I.G. of Police v. Prem Sagar (1999) 5 SCC 700, and made the order peremptory and mandatory. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.",
