PROCESS OF INVESTIGATION OF CRIMES
Probably, one of the most important duties of the police is to investigate crimes that have been committed.
→ Each police station covers a specific area and so any crimes committed in an area has to be reported at the police station concerned.
→ The law requires the officer of the police station to register a Girst Information Report or FIR whenever information is given that a crime has been committed.
→ Even if the crime committed is not within the purview of the concerned police station, in order to avoid unwanted delay, the officer there must file an FIR. The case can later be transfered to the police station concerned.
→ But the police cannot decide on the guilt of the accused — that is the work of the judiciary.
The constitution clearly guarantees the following fundamental rights to all those arrested :
a. the right to know, at the time of arrest, the reason for the arrest
b. the right not to be ill- treated or tortured during arrest and subsequent detention.
c. once the FIR has been lodged and arrest made, the matter has to be taken to the court
d. the arrested person has to be presented before a magistrate within 24 hours of arrest
