While arrest grounds were properly documented with accused's acknowledgment, the court found procedural deficiencies. Despite prosecution's argument that Sec 69 CGST Act exempted compliance with Sec 41/41A CrPC requirements for arrests, the court relied on SC precedents (Arnesh Kumar and Gujarat State cases) mandating these safeguards for offenses punishable up to 7 years. The court ordered accused's release, finding arrest illegal due to non-compliance with Sec 41/41A CrPC and Sec 35 BNSS Act procedures. Prosecution retained liberty to re-arrest following proper procedures under relevant sections of CrPC, BNSS Act, and CGST Act. en-us Tue, 28 Jan 2025 08:24:49 +0530 Tue, 28 Jan 2025 08:24:50 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=85246 DSC examined judicial remand application under Sec 167 CrPC and Sec 187 BNSS Act.
