This inhumane and undignified treatment accorded to an accused indeed impedes dispensation of equal and accessible justice. Therefore, this article is an attempt to highlight the veracity of custodial violence in relation to concept of rule of law while discussing recent instances and lapses committed by functionaries in context of India’s response towards prevention of torture and custodial violence. The author would also put forward certain suggestions to curb this inhumane and undignified treatment in the form of custodial violence.- Reproduced
