Case History
Summary: On 13/08/2001, the Supreme Court heard Haryana's special leave petition challenging the High Court's direction requiring all criminal investigations to be conducted by officers of Inspector rank or above. The Court modified the High Court's absolute direction, holding instead that investigations should be conducted by competent officers conversant with the Criminal Procedure Code, with preference given to Inspectors where available. The Court directed the Director General of Police to issue an office memorandum incorporating these observations and disposed of the petition accordingly. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
