What are the legal rights of the common man when the police arrest him with an arrest warrant for a cognizable offense?

on


When a person is arrested by the police with an arrest warrant for a cognizable offense, there are certain legal rights that they are entitled to:

  1. Right to be informed of the grounds of arrest: The police officer arresting the person must inform them of the reasons for the arrest, i.e., the offense for which they are being arrested.
  2. Right to be produced before a magistrate: The arrested person must be made before a magistrate within 24 hours of the arrest (excluding the journey time).
  3. Right to legal representation: The arrested person can consult and seek defense from an Advocate.
  4. Right to remain silent: The arrested person has the right to remain silent (keep-quite) and cannot be forced to make any self-incriminating statements.
  5. Right to medical examination: A medical officer can examine the arrested person after arrest and at any time during detention.
  6. Right to bail: The arrested person may apply for bail if the offense is bailable.
  7. Right to inform a relative or friend: The arrested person has the right to inform a relative or friend about the arrest and place of detention.

It is important to note that the Indian Constitution guarantees these rights and cannot be waived or denied by the police. If these rights are violated, the arrested person may seek legal remedy by filing a complaint with the appropriate authority or approaching the court.
