TASMAC VS Directorte of enforcement

 If this court accepts that such a search conducted by an investigating agency is harassment, then it can lead to a floodgate of litigations where each and every citizen of this country bound by the rule of law start alleging harassment on every procedure detailed under our criminal procedure system. Thousands of litigants in this country wait for years with patience praying for Justice which is their constitutional right. But it is unfortunate that the government officers who are public servants cannot tolerate a few hours of detention to ensure a smooth investigation to be conducted. In fact it is their condition of service that they cooperate with any such lawful investigation conducted in their office premises. The officers nowhere have alleged any physical torture. Mere detention and seizing of cell phones which is normal procedure adopted for conducting a search.
