Andhra Pradesh High Court Rebukes Police Over CrPC 41-A Compliance

Deccan Chronicle  

Vijayawada: The Andhra Pradesh High Court has expressed displeasure over the police failure to comply with the norms of section 41-A of CrPC. A single judge bench of T. Mallikharjuna Rao held a hearing on an anticipatory bail plea of Telugu Desam MLA Yeluri Sambasiva Rao here on Monday over a case booked against him by the Marturu police. Petitioner’s counsel Posani Venkateswarlu appealed to the court to issue a direction to the police to comply with the norms of section 41-A of CrPC. The court called for issue of a direction to the police to serve notice under section 41-1 of CrPC to the MPs and MLAs, and expressed wonder by saying that, “If the MPs and MLAs were fearful of their arrest by the police even when cases were booked under such a section, one could comprehend the fate of commoners.” The court asked how the police could make an arrest in such a case and warned the cops, “Let the police arrest the legislator,” so that the court could punish the concerned police officer.
