https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=289243 Section 165 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898 was held not to prohibit a search for specific stolen property, only a general search for stolen property; on that basis the search was upheld as lawful and bona fide, so no damages were payable. The forwarding of a report under section 173 did not bar further investigation, because the law does not confine a crime to a single investigation and a further inquiry may begin on fresh information. The challenge to the search therefore failed, and the second appeal was rejected on the merits. en-us Fri, 15 Mar 1918 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 10:05:54 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=289243 Section 165 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898 was held not to prohibit a search for specific stolen property, only a general search for stolen property; on that basis the search was upheld as lawful and bona fide, so no damages were payable.
