2013 SCMR 66 SUPREME-COURT Judicial Precedent
Right to protection of life (security of person)Inviolability of dignity of manAccused in police custodyAbrogation of Fundamental Rights of accusedScope

When an accused was in custody, his Fundamental Rights were not abrogated in toto and his dignity could not be allowed to be comatosed

Any treatment meted to an accused while he was in custody which caused humiliation and mental trauma corroded the concept of human dignity

Police authorities had to remember that a citizen while in custody was not denuded of his fundamental right of protection of life (security of person)

Basic human rights of accused were not to be crippled so that the police officers could treat him in an inhuman manner, rather police was under obligation to protect his human rights and prevent all forms of atrocities.
