Relief from heat for Andhra Pradesh likely as low pressure brews over Bay of Bengal
Light to moderate showers are expected across the State, while isolated heavy rainfall likely in North Coastal A.P. from September 12 to 15, suggests IMD forecast
The Andhra Pradesh High Court has strongly criticized the actions of a police officer for sending a 17-year-old boy to jail in a theft case. The court ruled the remand order as "illegal, unsustainable" and without jurisdiction. SHO of the local police station was ordered to release the boy immediately and pay a fine of Rs 10,000 to the High Court Legal Services Committee.
The case began when six unidentified individuals took the boy from his home without revealing their identity. His father alleged that the police registered a theft case against his son, who was arrested and remanded to judicial custody on August 19. However, the court found that the boy's correct date of birth was September 12, 2008, not 2006 as the police initially believed.
