The court held that sections 4(1) and 4(2) POCA 1959 require production of written statements by the specified police officer and Public Prosecutor and do not mandate production of the police diary; the written statements and affidavits in this case contained sufficient facts and particulars to permit the Magistrate to exercise judicial discretion, therefore the detention was lawful and the habeas corpus application was dismissed.
