Abstract
This article throws light on the procedure of arrest of person (with or without warrant). This article is based on the criminal maxim that, “Let the hundred guilty be acquitted but one innocent should not be convicted” Arrest is mainly done when there is reason to believe that a person is going to commit any offence or has done any offence or crime. The process which is being followed after the arrest is the interrogation or questioning and investigation. It is considered as a part of criminal justice system. In arrest, a person is detained by the concerned authority. The word arrest has not been defined under the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.
