This book examines the procedural, cultural, and institutional
framework of custodial interrogation in India. It explores
theoretical and practical perspectives on custodial interrogation
practices in India which have been in urgent need for reform and
critiques the systemic failure on the part of the police in India
to implement suspects’ rights uniformly. This volume, —
Analyses the Indian framework of custodial interrogation to
identify its fundamental flaws, and emphasises on the need for
having a lawyer present during custodial interrogation; —
Demonstrates significant evidence on state of suspects’ rights in
India through comparative law methodologies with a focus on common
law scholarship and jurisprudence, more particularly England and
Wales, and supplemented by vital empirical research through key
interviews with related institutional parties; — Discusses
emerging, seminal jurisprudence of the European Court of Human
Rights on applications of the right to fair trial at the custodial
interrogation stage, especially shedding light on modern
applications of the right to legal assistance in England and Wales,
and radical Strasbourg-inspired reforms in other European
jurisdictions; — Highlights the right to legal assistance as one
of the viable solutions to break the culture of police lawlessness
at this critical stage of the criminal process. An invigorating
study, this book is aimed at enriching data and hypothesis for
academics, policy makers, civil society organizations, and students
working in the area of law and legal studies, police and policing,
citizenship, and political science.
