Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898 — Section 82: Where warrant may be executed
82. Where warrant may be executed. A warrant of arrest may be executed at any place in 2[Pakistan]. [Explanation.__ In this section, “warrant of arrest” includes a warrant of arrest issued police-officer not below the rank of an officer in charge of a station, within the local limits of whose jurisdiction the warrant is to be executed.
(2)Such Magistrate or police-officer shall endorse his name thereon and such endorsement shall be sufficient authority to the police-officer to whom the warrant is directed to execute the same within such limits, and the local police shall, if so required, assist such officer in executing such warrant.
(3)Whenever there is reason to believe that the delay occasioned by obtaining the endorsement of the Magistrate or police-officer within the local limits of whose jurisdiction the warrant is to be executed, will prevent such execution, the police-officer to whom it is directed may execute the same without such endorsement in any place beyond the local limits of the jurisdiction of the Court which issued it. 1 [* * * * * * *]
