Tangential: I don't think there is any reliable online source which documents advice on dealing with law enforcement officials in India. What are the protections that a citizen have against unreasonable searches and seizures by public officials? The Fourth Amendment to the US Bill of Rights guarantees American citizens protection against misuse of executive powers, and public servants like police officers have to follow proper procedures.

It isn't easy to stand ground when you are outnumbered. It also isn't god when the cop reels out a law which you've never heard of. I said, I'd look up the law over the Internet on my phone.
