High Courts
District and Session Court
Both (A) and (B)
Validate
Solution:
The Correct Answer is
Both (A) and (B).
In the Indian constitution, only the Supreme Court and the High Court have the authority to grant a
writ of 'Habeas Corpus.'
A writ of habeas corpus
is a writ that allows an accused person to be brought before a judge or in court.
The habeas corpus
principle guarantees that an inmate may be released from unlawful custody, i.e. custody without adequate cause or proof.
The cure may be obtained by the inmate or any person who comes to the assistance of the prisoner.
This right emerged in the legal system in English and is now available in several nations.
Historically it has been an important legislative tool protecting individual rights from arbitrary state intervention.
