Report No. 243

Shri T. Pachuau, IG of Police, Manipu.-

It should remain non-bailable but compoundable with the permission of the Court. Immediate arrest and custodial interrogation of husband and relatives should be avoided. Action to be taken to examine the victim and the accused soon after filing of FIR. Legal Services Authority (LSA) of the District or professional counselors will be ideally suited to process conciliation.
