The recent death in Tamil Nadu of a father and his son, allegedly due to custodial death has amplified the already sparked anger across the country. Human Rights organizations have been actively covering the reports, and even previous sealed cases are getting unveiled after the hype for justice in India.

Custodial death – Who is responsible?

The manner in which men in uniform have legalized themselves to treat the convicted criminals is showing a danger sign when it comes to violation of Human Rights. The number of deaths during custody bears testimony of the cruelty and brutality from the official’s side.

 

A total of 1,731 people died in custody in India during 2019. This works out to almost five such deaths daily, according to a report by a rights group released on Friday.

India’s Annual Report on Torture-2019 said – 1,606 of the deaths happened in judicial custody and 125 in police custody. 

“Out of the 125 deaths in police custody, Uttar Pradesh scores 14 deaths, followed by Tamil Nadu and Punjab with 11 deaths each and Bihar with 10 deaths,” said the report published by the National Campaign Against Torture (NCAT).

 

Of the 125 cases in police custody, 93 persons (74.4%) died due to alleged torture or foul play, while 24 (19.2%) died under suspicious circumstances in which the police cited suicide (16), illness (7) and injuries (1). The reasons for the custodial death of five others (4%) were unknown, the report said.

 

The NCAT’s analysis also revealed 75 (60%) of these 125 belonged to the poor and marginalized communities. They included 13 from Dalit and Tribal communities and 15 were Muslims, while 35 were picked up for petty crimes. Three of them were farmers, two security guards, two drivers, a labourer, a rag picker, and a refugee.

However, in the case of women, torture even raises to sexual violence. Most of the times, those women belong to the weaker sections of the society.

 

Now, the questions should be pointed out towards the policemen who were shouldered with the responsibilities of maintaining law and order. On its contrary, they went on to break laws and transcended every level in torturing the convicts.

 Protection Under the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973:

The code of criminal procedure, 1973 contains provisions intended to operate as a safeguard against custodial torture.

 

  • Section 49 provides that the person arrested shall not be subjected to more restraint than is necessary to prevent his escape.
  • Section 57 provides that no police officer shall detail in custody a person arrested without a warrant for a longer period than under all circumstances of the case is reasonable and such period shall not, in the absence of a special order of a magistrate under section 167, exceed 24 hours exclusively of the time necessary for the journey from the place of arrest to the court of the magistrate. Provision of the section 57 is mandatory.
  • Section 57A provides that when a person arrested without a warrant is produced before the magistrate, the magistrate shall, by inquiries to be made from the arrested person satisfy himself that the provision of sections 56 and 57, have been complied with and shall also enquire and record the time and date of arrest.
  • Section 163 provides that,

(1) No police officer or other person in authority shall offer or make, or cause to be offered, or make, any such inducement, threat or promise as is mentioned in section 24 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872

(2) But no police officer or person shall prevent, by any caution or otherwise, any person from making in the course of any investigation under this chapter any statement which he may be disposed to make of his own free will:

Provided that nothing in this sub section shall affect the provisions of sub section (4) of section164

  • Section 164(4) provides that, any such confession shall be recorded in the manner provided in section 281 for recording the examining of an accused person and shall be signed by the person making the confession, and the Magistrate shall make a memorandum at the foot of such record to the following effect:- I have explained to name that he is not bound to make a confession and that, if he does so, any confession he may make may be used as evidence against him and I believe that this confession was voluntarily made. It was taken in my presence and hearing, and was read over to the person making it and admitted by him to be correct, and it contains a full and true account of the statement made by him.
