The Court emphasised that claims of custodial violence must ordinarily be backed by medical records, visible injuries, or other reliable corroboration, and that doubtful, exaggerated, or unsupported allegations do not justify relief. On the facts, the allegations arose during police efforts to trace the petitioner's son, the material did not establish clear custodial torture, and several assertions were found exaggerated or false. Compensation was therefore refused and no further relief granted. en-us Fri, 03 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 16 Aug 2019 12:39:41 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=282635 Public law compensation for alleged illegal detention or custodial torture under Article 32 is available only when infringement of Article 21 is patent, gross, and supported by incontrovertible evidence.
