On any given night in Kochi, you could be out with friends when youre stopped by the police. No warning; their hands are in your pockets before a word is spoken. Your phone is searched, and its messages are probed for traces of drug slang. As with most who undergo this routine, there is no arrest; it is a routine check-up without any necessary probable cause.This is the stop-and-search method of policing made infamous by the United States. Similarly, in Kerala, this method has contributed to the 24,517 narcotics-related arrests in 2024, a 330% rise compared to the previous year, with a conviction rate of 98.9%, the highest in the country.
