Custodial Deaths In India: Breaking The Cycle Of Impunity

Criminal Law By 0

This blog examines the ongoing crisis of custodial deaths in India, spotlighting the July 2025 Sivaganga case as a stark example of state abuse and constitutional failure. It analyzes India’s global “high risk” ranking for torture, the alarming rise in custodial fatalities, and the near-total lack of police accountability. Drawing from landmark Supreme Court rulings and recent criminal law reforms, the blog exposes persistent institutional failures and ineffective legal safeguards. By comparing global best practices, it proposes a sweeping reform agenda—calls for independent oversight, vibrant accountability laws, technological safeguards, and deep cultural change—to break the country’s cycle of state impunity. Ultimately, the blog issues a democratic imperative: Only bold, systemic transformation can restore public trust and fulfill India’s constitutional promise of justice and dignity for all.
