Non-provision of the grounds of arrest in the manner required by law rendered the arrest and continued detention unsustainable. The High Court held that the respondents' explanation of clerical error did not cure the decisive defect, because the petitioner had not been furnished the grounds of arrest as mandated by the Supreme Court and followed by the Court.
