Section 528 BNSS | Mere Allegations Without Concrete Evidence Insufficient for Investigation Transfer: Madras HC

The Madras High Court (Madurai Bench) ruled that a plea for transfer of investigation under Section 528 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) must be backed by concrete evidence, not just allegations. The court dismissed the petition, emphasizing that interference is unwarranted post-charge sheet filing, especially in property disputes involving familial conflicts.
