Cheranalloor car crash: Kerala HC invokes BNS Section 105, seeks data on similar juvenile cases

Cheranalloor car crash: Kerala HC invokes BNS Section 105, seeks data on similar juvenile cases

What's behind this

The Kerala High Court, through Justice Kauser Edappagath, granted anticipatory bail to a district judge booked in the Cheranalloor crash case, questioning the prosecution’s insistence on custodial interrogation after the accused had already undergone roughly six hours of questioning. In a related matter, Judge Kavitha Gangadharan ordered the collection of data on BNS Section 105 invocations in accidents involving juvenile drivers to attach to an order on appeals filed by the prosecution and the family of the deceased against bail granted to a teenager by the Juvenile Justice Board, and warned an investigation officer that he would be held answerable if no FIRs had been registered elsewhere invoking BNS.
