Under which section of the Criminal Procedure Code (Cr.P.C) is a police officer authorized to arrest a person without a warrant if they are involved in a cognizable offense?

Explanation

According to the Criminal Procedure Code, Section 54 empowers a police officer to arrest without a warrant any individual suspected of involvement in a cognizable offense. Sections 53 and 54-A do not grant this specific authority, and therefore, the correct provision is Section 54.
