CW-2026-0086Nicobar, Andaman and Nicobar IslandsJudgment 10 August 2026
Shri Nicobar Man vs The Director General of Police and Ors
The High Court held that the State had produced no document apart from pleading to show compliance with the Supreme Court arrest safeguards in Campbell Bay PS Case No. 30 of 2021. The High Court held that no prima facie evidence had been produced to show compliance with the statutory arrest requirements. The High Court rejected the custodial-harm claim for want of prima facie material beyond a small superficial cut. The High Court directed a Deputy Superintendent of Police-level enquiry within 90 working days and directed disciplinary proceedings against the delinquent forthwith if breach is found.
