Court Decision Summary The Additional Sessions Judge dismissed the State's criminal revision petition, affirming the lower court's orders. The court held that the remand period under Section 167 CrPC must be calculated from the date of shown arrest (27.01.2026), and since the statutory custody period had expired by the time police remand was requested, the Magistrate correctly rejected the remand application. The court found the Investigating Officer was estopped from challenging the shown arrest procedure after having initiated and accepted it without objection.
