The Punjab and Haryana High Court has cautioned the Judicial Officers deployed at Special PMLA Courts to not act as an "extended arm" of the central investigating agency Enforcement Directorate, by passing orders of remand against the suspect as a matter of course. Stating so, it set aside a Special Court's "routine order" granting ED custody for custodial interrogation of accused Balwant Singh in a PMLA case. The bench criticized the Special Court for accepting ED's prayer in a routine manner and authorizing Singh's custodial interrogation, "while negating the salutary protection emanating from Article 21 of the Constitution".
