Orders
The court disposed of the writ petition with a direction that the Investigating Officer must comply with the Arnesh Kumar guidelines for offences carrying less than seven years imprisonment. Since the FIR against Harish Chandra Joshi charged him under sections carrying sentences below seven years, the I.O. is legally obligated to issue appropriate notices during investigation rather than proceed directly to arrest. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
