Answer: C

Section 55 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 deals with the procedure when a police officer deputes a subordinate to arrest without warrant: the subordinate must be given a written order specifying the person to be arrested and the offence, and the subordinate must notify the substance of the order to the person arrested if required.

The examination of the accused by a medical practitioner at the request of a police officer is Section 53, the power to seize offensive weapons is Section 52, and discharge of a person apprehended is Section 59. These are the neighbouring sections in the chapter on arrest.
