Bombay HC: Hemang Shah's Arrest Declared Illegal

Bombay HC: Hemang Shah's Arrest Declared Illegal

The Bombay High Court ruled that the arrest of Hemang Shah, a director, was illegal because the police didn't follow the rules.

According to the law, when someone is arrested, they need to be brought before a judge within 24 hours.

However, in this case, the court found the police took too long.

The arrest was related to claims that Shah defrauded his brother.

The court decided Shah should be released immediately, but the case can continue.

The dispute appears to be over money between Shah and his brother.
