My brother was arrested, and the Magistrate granted 3 days of physical remand. The police are demanding money and threatening to beat him. What are the legal limits of physical remand?

Under Section 167 CrPC, remand can only be granted if the investigation cannot be completed in 24 hours and there is strong evidence. Torture is strictly prohibited under Article 14(2) of the Constitution and the Torture and Custodial Death (Prevention and Punishment) Act 2022. Your lawyer must raise this during the remand hearing, demand a medical examination, and file a complaint against the officer.
