Query on detention in CrPC sec 151


01-Jul-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Hi, I was recently detained by UP Police (Phantom) under CrPC 151 and was later released after furnishing bail bond. At the time of my arrest (I wasn't aware it was arrest), the Phantom constable told me that my wife had filed a complaint and thus they have orders to take me to PS. They showed me some papers which seemed to me was a written complaint. My wife have many times dialed 100 and woman hotline number in past few months on pretence of false complaints and as a process both of us had to visit the local PS and from there the Police usually advised my wife to take the matter to court. However this time I was taken to PS on 1 June at 21:30 hrs and wasn't informed until next day that I have been booked under CrPC 151 and the form submitted to SEM by Police read that "while our patrol on June 1, we found this person yelling and fighting with his wife and attempted to warn him. But the person overlooked our warning and thus has been detained under sec 151". Such detention is lawful?

it's very unfortunate that you was detained by police and confined under section 151 crpc but that means your wife has called the police and already given complaint against you .it's not a good sign of cohabitation in a maritial relationship .you must settle all the disputes between you and her .even after its not settled and very difficult to stay together amicably and peacefully u must both get ready for divorce she has done cruelty against you if without any strong reason you was under police custody...go legal....
