State of Bihar - Subsection

Section 29(iii) in Criminal Court Rules of the High Court of Judicature at Patna

(iii)A Magistrate recording a confession should satisfy himself in every reasonable way that the confession is made voluntarily. It is not necessary actually to invite complaints of police ill-treatment, though of these, if spontaneously made, cognizance should be promptly taken, but it should be made clear to the prisoner that the making or withholding of a statement is within his discretion, and any indication of use of improper pressure should be at once investigated.
