What can I do if the police searched my house unlawfully?

Our nearest police station officers came to my home at 11:00 PM and searched the whole house. They are blaming my father for lending money to someone, but it’s totally false. After searching the house, they took my whole family to the police station. What can I do?

You can file a complaint against the police for unlawful search and wrongful detention under section 495 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) if they failed to follow procedure. You can also approach the District Magistrate or higher authorities with the details of the incident. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
