The India — Meghalaya High Court had upheld bail on grounds of a typographical error in the arrest memo, citing Section 403 instead of Section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. The Supreme Court may refer to a larger bench the legal question of whether such an error invalidates an arrest.
