Option 3 : A, B and D

The correct answer is A, B and D.

  • Article 22 deals with protection against arrest and detention in certain cases.
  • Under Article 22 of the Indian Constitution, fundamental rights guaranteed to a person arrested are:
    • Right to be informed at the time of arrest of the offense for which the person is arrested.
    • Right to be presented before a magistrate within 24 hours of arrest.
    • Boys below 15 years of age and women cannot be called to the police station only for interrogation.

 Thus, we can say that the above fundamental rights are guaranteed to a person arrested under Article 22.

  • Under section 25 of the Indian Evidence Act, a confession to a Police officer is inadmissible in evidence, and hence when an accused person confesses during the Police investigation the Police frequently get it recorded by a Magistrate under section 164 Criminal Procedure Code, and it can then be used to the extent to which it may be admissible under the Indian Evidence Act.
