In which of the following cases the Supreme Court held that “That law does not mandate taking of prior permission for further investigations or carrying out further investigations even after filing of charge-sheet, it being a statutory right of Police”

Option A: State of A.P. Vs. AS Peter

Option B: Balbir Singh Vs. State of Delhi

Option C: State of U.P. Vs. Farid Khan

Option D: Union of India Vs. Padam Narain Agarwal

Correct Answer

Option: a

Explanation

In our view, notwithstanding that a Magistrate had taken cognizance of the offence upon a police report submitted under Section 173 of the 1898 Code, the right of the police to further investigate was not exhausted and the police could exercise such right as often as necessary when fresh information came to light. Where the police desired to make a further investigation, the police could express their regard and respect for the court by seeking its formal permission to make further investigation
