This query is : Resolved
what is the meaning of 'any magistrate' as per sec.97 cr.p.c.. Whether any magistrate in India can issue a search warrant as provided u/sec. 97 cr.p.c. without having a territorial jurisdiction of the place where the offence of wrongful confinement was committed. e.g. whether a magistrate of first class of Nasik can issue a search warrant for the person who is wrongfully confined at solapur.
If possible plz provide answer with the judgement.
