When Police catches accused, they are brought with faces covered to the Court of Magistrate.
This is for the purpose that later in the day or within couple of days, an identification parade will be held in presence of a District Magistrate.
Here, accused will be mixed up with similar looking other persons. From this group, the witnesses will identify the accused persons.
The whole process is reduced to writing and is later produced as evidence of identification parade in court.
