Section 160 Cr.P.C. deals with a situation of Police summoning any person for inquiry.

An IO could summon any person [summon must be in writing] for inquiry at his Police Station. The IO is allowed to summon a person who is not even a resident of his Station limit, and still such person is acquainted with the facts and circumstances of the case and upon summoning he must present.

This Provision though makes certain exception to males who are less than 15 years and above 65 years in age and women of all age and those who are physically and mentally impaired, and they must be attended close to their place of stay.

Any rules made by the State Government to bear expenses for attending the inquiry, the same must be paid by the IO.
