Section 10F

If the Inspector or senior police officer in any of the circumstances referred to in section 10D has reasonable cause to believe that by reason of delay in obtaining a search warrant under that section the investigation would be adversely affected or the evidence of the commission of the offence is likely to be tampered with, removed, damaged or destroyed, the Inspector or senior police officer may enter the premises and exercise in, and in respect of the premises, all the powers referred to in section 10D in as full and ample a manner as if he were authorized to do so by a warrant issued under that section.
