Detention without transit remand violates Article 22(2) & BNSS §528 - Arrest declared illegal | CGHC
The Chhattisgarh High Court set aside the magistrate’s orders remanding Jitesh Anand to police and judicial custody, declaring his arrest unlawful for breaching Article 22(2) and Section 528 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita. The decision underscores that any detention without a valid transit remand is unconstitutional, mandating immediate release on bail.
