Excerpt from Political Financial Requirements of British India: As Set Forth in a Petition of the British Indian Association of Calcutta to Both Houses of Parliament The Petition points further to the evil effects of the changes which have in late years been introduced in the criminal law. The liberty of the subject has been considerably curtailed under the New Criminal Procedure Code, which has unduly increased the summary powers of magistrates, checked appeals by giving the Appellate authority power to enhance punishment, a thing unknown, I believe, in any other part of the British do minion; permitted the Crown to appeal against an acquittal, a power equally objectionable, and legalized the arrest of persons on mere suspicion and without affidavit. These innovations cannot fail to be productive of great injustice and suffering, in a country where the police are notoriously corrupt and the public press is very weak.
