*Janhit mein jaari*…
There is something called Citizens Arrest…
Section 43, of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 states that:
1. Any private person may arrest or cause to be arrested any person who in his presence commits a non-bailable and cognizable offence, or any proclaimed offender, and, without unnecessary delay, shall make over or cause to be made over any person so arrested to a police officer, or, in the absence of a police officer, take such person or cause him to be taken in custody to the nearest police station.
2. If there is a reason to believe that such person comes under the provisions of Sec 41, a police officer shall re-arrest him.
3. If there is a reason to believe that he has committed a non-cognizable offence, and he refuses on the demand of the police officer to give his name and residence, or gives name or residence which such officer has a reason to believe to be false, he shall be dealt with under the provisions of Sec 42, but if there is no sufficient reason to believe that he has committed any offence he shall at once be released.
*According to this section any private person may arrest or cause to be arrested*
* A person committing a non bailable and cognizable offence in his presence or
* Any proclaimed offender he shall without unnecessary delay take such person over to a police officer or to the nearest police station.
