Only spl officers can probe PITA cases, says Telangana high court
Telangana High Court ruled that only specially appointed officers under the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act can investigate such cases. Justice Anil Kumar Jukanti quashed a spa case, finding a sub-inspector's raid illegal as PITA mandates officers not below inspector rank, designated by notification. The court directed the DGP to immediately appoint these special officers, underscoring the Act's specific requirements.
