However, considering the fact that all the offences, complained of in the impugned FIR, are punishable with a term up to seven years, therefore, in case of effecting the arrest of the petitioner in pursuance of the impugned FIR, it is directed that the respondents/ authorities shall ensure that the specific provisions contained in Section 41(1)(b) and Section 41-A of CrPC/Section 35(3) to 35(7) of Bhartiya Nagrika Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Manoj Kumar, Quazi Mohammad Akaram, Ziauddin Farooqui Counsel for Respondent(s) : Aqueel Ahmad, G.A., Irfan Ahmad, Vaibhav Tyagi, Virendra Gupta Suhaib .....Petitioner(s) State Of U.P.
