Semakan kehakiman 1 Prosedur Jenayah 1 In this action, the plaintiff challenges the act of the defendants that allegedly led to his wrongful arrest under section 3(1) of the Drug Dependent (Treatment and Rehabilitation) Act 1983 ("Act 283") as well as his subsequent wrongful detention allegedly made under the Dangerous Drugs (Special Preventive Measures) Act 1985 ("Act 316"). The defendants, however, argue that the arrest and detention were lawful under Act 283 and Act 316. 1 The Court finds that the plaintiff was arrested in compliance with the law under section 3 of Act 283. A reasonable suspicion of drug dependency led to the plaintiff's arrest in this case, as defined in section 3(1) of Act 283. As for the second arrest, the Court finds that it was made in accordance with section 3 of Act 316. This section provides that any police officer may, without a warrant, arrest and detain a person for the purpose of investigation if the officer has reason to believe that there are grounds to justify his detention under section 6(1) of Act 316. 1 However, the Court finds that the Minister's failure to consider the 2nd defendant's complete report constitutes a violation of section 3(3) of Act 316. This is due to the fact that such a requirement has a mandatory effect on the part of the investigating officer. Here, the investigating officer did not provide his complete report to the Minister of Home Affairs. Section 3(3) of Act 316 mandates that the 2nd defendant submit a complete report to the minister. As such, this failure proves fatal to the defendants' conduct in detaining the plaintiff. 1 Therefore, the plaintiff's claim for false imprisonment has been proven; however, only in relation to the Detention Order. 1 Constitutional Law: Citizenship 1
