Mumbai Court Slams Police for Illegal Arrest in Chembur Fraud Case
A man in Mumbai was arrested for allegedly cheating people out of a lot of money through investment schemes.
However, a court has ruled the arrest was done incorrectly.
The police made mistakes like not following proper procedures.
The arrest happened before the case was officially filed.
Also, the police didn't provide proper reasons or inform his family right away.
The court has said the police need permission from a higher officer before detaining someone.

The man was arrested on May 18, with the case lodged after the arrest.
