An accused in a POCSO case in Mumbai had to be escorted back to the police station for a COVID-19 test, causing inconvenience to police officials. Despite low COVID-19 cases, mandatory tests for accused before lodging them in jails are still in place. There are only two testing centers in Mumbai, causing logistical challenges for jail authorities. The police cannot keep accused in general lock-ups after granting judicial custody, leading to further difficulties. | Mumbai news
