The Himachal Pradesh High Court, while allowing the bail application of an accused, has observed that the tool of custodial interrogation cannot be used to extract confession
Special CBI Judge Ajay Gulati passed orders finding that the custodial interrogation of the brother of Trinamool Congress leader Vinay Mishra is necessary to unearth the conspiracy.
Custodial interrogation is the formal questioning of an accused or a criminal suspect in custody with the aim to obtain evidence or seek a confession in an ongoing investigation.
