BNSS Section 528 | Mere Apprehension of Police Bias Insufficient for Investigation Transfer Without Prima Facie Malafide Evidence : Madras HC

Madurai High Court rules that a petitioner's fear of biased investigation under BNSS Section 528 must be backed by concrete evidence of malafide conduct, not just subjective apprehension. The court directed disclosure of postmortem and viscera reports to ensure transparency while upholding police accountability in criminal probes.
