Custodial violence in Indian perspective: An analytical study - South Asian Journal of Socio-Political Studies - 25(1), Jul-Dec, 2024: p.93-96

Custodial violence involves rape, torture, or death in police or judiciary custody. Custodial violence is the physical and emotional abuse of the victim that violates human rights. It is considered one of the worst human rights violations. Police and other agencies continue to torture victims by crushing their spines, hitting their soles, delaying medical treatment, scorching with a cigarette, extracting teeth, forcing them to lie nude on ice slabs, and submerging them in water. The Supreme Court of India, National Human Rights Commission, and UN condemn the heinous crime. National police ignore these institutions.- Reproduced
