As per the Cr.P.C. Amendment the police is having the power to send summons to the accused. But the SC in 2004 Cr.LJ 2515 had held that the police can not summon the accused, because the possibility of arrest is there.
So, the cr.p.c amendment is against the SC decision. Whether it is beneficial to the accused or not. Please comment
