Bombay High Court orders Install CCTVs at police stations to avoid Custodial Deaths

Bombay High Court orders Install CCTVs at police stations to avoid Custodial Deaths

Maharashtra records 23.48 per cent of the custodial deaths in the country.
The conviction rate is zero in these cases.

Once again Collegium system High Court judges gave the Historical Judgment to avoid custodial deaths in Maharashtra.

The Bombay High Court on Wednesday directed the State government to install CCTV cameras in all the rooms and corridors of every police station in the Maharashtra state.

High Court also directed the State to conduct magisterial inquiry against the police officials accused in a custodial death case.

It also said that custodial death cases should be treated on “high-priority basis and a special public prosecutor should be appointed, who should be assisted by a woman public prosecutor

Such a pity for every good law Indian High Court and Supreme Court of India has to pass an order after that government thinks on that orders and making a law as per that order.
