Arresting the wrong man

No more 'mistakenly' arresting the wrong person

Filing false or harassing cases has become an integral part of the existing judicial system in the country. Many people intentionally, and sometimes mistakenly, fall victim to such harassing cases. According to the law, if someone is mistakenly made a party to a case or excluded from it, the case is not affected. It continues at its own pace. However, it is very unfortunate to harass someone by 'mistakenly' arresting the wrong person.
