Some Citation on Criminal law
1 Sadiq B. Hanchinmani vs. State of Karnataka
Neutral Citation: 2025 INSC 1282
Magistrates can direct police to register FIRs under Section 156(3) CrPC even before taking formal cognizance, the Court reaffirmed.
Relevance: Empowers magistrates to
uphold citizen complaints. District courts must not deny FIR registration where prima facie offences exist.
2. Mihir Rajesh Shah vs. State of Mahar-ashtra
Neutral Citation: 2025 INSC 1288
Arrested persons must be informed of arrest grounds under Article 22(1) and CrPC, ideally before being sent to judicial custody. Delay invalidates the arrest.
Relevance: Trial courts must verify arrest legality when considering remand or bail. Delayed disclosure justifies bail.
3 Sagar vs. State of U.P. & Anr.
Neutral Citation: 2025 INSC 1370
Bail to a co-accused does not entitle others automatically unless circumstances are identical.
Relevance: HCs and district courts must
evaluate each bail plea on merits. Parity applies only if facts are fully aligned.
4 Sk. Md. Anisur Rahaman vs. State of W.B.
Neutral Citation: 2025 INSC 1360
The SC rejected repeated attempts to reopen concluded verdicts. Courts must honour finality to preserve trust in the system.
Relevance
High Court and trial courts must not entertain repetitive after SC closure.
