M.Kalithai vs State Of Tamil Nadu Rep.By Its on 14 March, 2009

Para 9. The diabolic recurrence of police torture resulting in a terrible scare in the minds of common citizens that their lives and liberty are under a new and unwarranted peril because guardians of law destroy the human rights by custodial violence and torture and invariably resulting in death. The vulnerability of human rights assumes a traumatic torture when functionaries of the State whose paramount duty is to protect the citizens and not to commit gruesome offences against them, in reality perpetrate them. The concern which was shown in Raghubir Singh's case (supra) more than two decades back seems to have fallen to deaf ears and the situation does not seem to be showing any noticeable change.

Prempal & Ors. vs The Commissioner Of Police & Ors. on 25 March, 2010

35. It is in this background that the unjustified criticism of the judgment of the learned ASJ has to be viewed. It is reflective of the general lackadaisical attitude that is noticed when it comes to the police dealing with the weak and the vulnerable in society. This Court can only echo what the Supreme Court said recently in Dalbir Singh v. State of U.P. AIR 2009 SC 1674 where it was dealing with a claim for compensation for a death in police custody. While observing that "custodial violence, torture and abuse of police power are not peculiar to this country, but it is widespread," the court noted:

P.Pugalenthi vs State Of Tamil Nadu on 15 September, 2009

No.193 of 2006 (between Dalbir Singh vs. State of U.P. & Ors.) also cannot be pressed into service on the facts of this case. As we have already pointed out, there cannot be any second opinion about the values of human rights even in case a person is an accused and in custody and nobody including the police officials have any right either to harass or torture resulting in the death of such person. But the question is whether even before the Revenue Divisional Officer enquiry is completed, the petitioner would be justified in seeking for a direction to register the case against all the police officers who were in-charge of the police station.
