Yes if there is any non-bailable offence. But in Indian practically police can take police station to anyone even without any warrant or notice. No one ask to police you have any notice or warrant or even complaint against me

Hello, Police can have you in their custody without actually arresting you. Police custody is defined as wherein you cannot leave the police premises with your free will and you are deprived of your personal freedom. If you are detained in police custody such as in case of serious offence without any charged offence, the police cannot detain you more than 24 hours. The police must also release you if they dont have sufficient evidence to charge you.

As per your query police has power to arrest a person in regard to determination of a cognizable offence .The query is too short to be exactly answered as there are possibilities of a FIR being registered against the person and the IO has the belief to do so .But the accused has all the rights to get free copy from the detaining police officer the copy of FIR and defend his case.

There are two types of offences. Cognizable offence and non cognizable offence. The police has got all the right ti arrest in cognizable offences and also for non cognizable offences the police may take permission of arrest for which no notice is required
