Section 7 in Rules for the Administration of Justice in the North Cachar Hills Sub-Division
7.
The village authorities may pursue an offender fleeing beyond their jurisdiction and arrest him, but shall not ordinarily attempt to arrest an offender beyond their own jurisdiction without the cognizance and co-operation of the village authorities within whose limits the offender has fled. When an offender is traced from one jurisdiction to another, it will be sufficient to point him to the village authorities within whose limits he may be found, aiding them, if required, to effect his capture.
