The scheme of Section 167 distinguishes initial police custody under Section 57 from custody authorised by remand, and pre-remand police custody cannot be added to the statutory period. Section 167(5), which expressly refers to the date of arrest, and the structure of Section 309(2) support this construction. The statutory right to bail under the proviso arises only after expiry of the remand period counted from remand. en-us Thu, 08 May 1986 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 16:20:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=169357 For the purpose of proviso (a) to Section 167(2) CrPC, the statutory period of 90 days in grave offences and 60 days in other offences is computed from the date of remand by the Magistrate, not from the date of arrest.
