‘Illegal custody’ of businessman: Will ask Gujarat HC to give proper training to magistrates, says SC

Having termed as "grossest of contempt" the police remand of a businessman granted anticipatory bail, the Supreme Court said on January 29 it will ask the Gujarat High Court to impart proper training to magistrates.

Voicing extreme displeasure over the police remand of the Gujarat-based businessman, the top court had on January 10 issued notice to some police officials and a judicial magistrate of Surat on a contempt petition filed by the man.

The top court was informed it had on December 8 last year granted anticipatory bail to petitioner Tusharbhai Rajnikantbhai Shah but he was remanded in police custody from December 13 to 16, 2023 in a cheating case.
