The Habeas Corpus writ is issued to produce a person who has been detained, whether in prison or in private custody, before a court and to release him if such detention is found illegal.
The right to habeas corpus has been used by the Indian judiciary effectively only in order to secure the release of a person from illegal detention.
If the detained person is unable to seek the writ of habeas corpus, someone else mayact so on his behalf.
