In the instant matter, admittedly, no such effort had been made by the learned Magistrate to ensure adequate legal aid to the accused petitioner and appropriate opportunity of hearing at the time judicial remand. Even the arrest memo does not contain any column regarding grounds of arrest of the petitioner. This very issue is primarily the bone of contention between the parties in the instant matter. Accordingly, this, being a clear non-compliance of the mandate under Section 50 of the Code which has been introduced to give effect to Article 22(1) of the Constitution of India, 1950, we are inclined to set aside the impugned order in view of law laid down by the Apex Court in Prabir Purkayastha (sup....

.... the ground of arrest, by the Director General of Police of the State, his own Subordinate Officer of Police is not complying the same and therefore the purpose of new arrest memo having been made and circulated to all the police officers of the State has been frustrated. 13. A bare perusal of the memo of arrest shows that the grounds of arrest mentioned in paragraph 13 have been sub-divided in six sub-clauses. In the present case, requirement of not a single clause has been fulfilled by the investigating officer of the police. He has only stated that the accused has been acquainted of the offence committed by him and the sections wherein he has been implicated, after following the procedure of arrest and information of his arrest has been given to his father, Vinay Rastogi, on telephone. He has also been informed that he can meet his counsel and he has been acquainted of his rights to obtain bail. 14. We find that the requirements of clause 13 and its sub-clauses in the memo of arrest have not been complied. None of the sub-clause of Section 13 provides that an accused should only be informed about the offence committed by him and section of his implication, but the clause a....
