Discussion
Based on the statements and conclusions regarding Code of Criminal Procedure 1973 given below, select the correct option.
Statements:-
I. Every police officer or other person arresting any person without warrant shall forthwith communicate to him full particulars of the offence for which he is arrested or other grounds for such arrest.
II. Every police officer or other person making any arrest under this Code shall forthwith give the information regarding such arrest and place where the arrested person is being held to any of his friends; relatives or such other persons as may be disclosed or nominated by the arrested person for the purpose of giving such information.
Conclusions:-
I. Section 50 of this code talks about Person arrested to be informed of grounds of arrest and of right to bail.
II. Obligation of person making arrest to inform about the arrest etc. to a nominated person has been discussed in this code.
Answer: B
Only Conclusion II follows. Statement II says that every officer making an arrest must forthwith give information of the arrest and the place of holding to a friend, relative or other person nominated by the arrested person; Conclusion II says that this obligation is discussed in the Code, which follows directly.
Conclusion I gives the number of the section that deals with informing the arrested person of the grounds of arrest and the right to bail, as Section 50. The statements do not state the section number or the right to bail, so that conclusion adds a fact and does not follow. So only Conclusion II follows.
