Section 134 of CPC : Section 134: Arrest Other Than In Execution Of Decree

Explanation using Example

Imagine a scenario where a court has issued an arrest warrant against John Doe for failing to comply with a court order in a civil case. Section 134 of The Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 comes into play here, which states that the provisions regarding arrest and detention as outlined in sections 55, 57, and 59 of the same code are also applicable to John Doe's situation. This means that when John is arrested, the arresting officer must inform him of the grounds of arrest (as per section 55), he must be brought before the court within 24 hours (in accordance with section 57), and he may be released on bail or bond if applicable (as per section 59).
