Section 57 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) mandates that a person arrested without a warrant must be produced before a magistrate within 24 hours of the arrest, excluding the time necessary for the journey from the place of arrest to the magistrate's court. This provision ensures the arrested person's rights are protected and that the arrest is justified.
