The text examines legal limits on issuing and continuing Look-Out Circulars (LOCs) as restraints on the fundamental right to travel and personal liberty, holding that LOCs are coercive executive measures permitted only where a cognizable offence exists and there is specific, tangible material showing deliberate evasion or a proximate likelihood of absconding; exceptional national or systemic risks warranting narrow application of exceptional powers are required otherwise.
