Preventive Detention Under PIT NDPS Act | Delay in Detention Order Does Not Vitiate Legality If 'Live Link' Maintained : Kerala HC
Kerala High Court rules that mere delay in executing a preventive detention order under the PIT NDPS Act does not invalidate it, provided the authorities reasonably explain the delay and maintain the 'live link' with the detenu. The judgment reinforces that procedural lapses alone cannot snap the nexus between detention grounds and public safety concerns, offering critical clarity for detention jurisprudence.
