The earlier detention was not examined because habeas corpus legality is tested against the detention subsisting on the petition date. Since the case fell within the statutory proviso governing court-ordered production of a remanded prisoner, the custody was not shown to be without jurisdiction. A writ of habeas corpus was therefore unavailable. en-us Tue, 05 Feb 1974 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 17:58:59 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=188953 Detention pursuant to production before a criminal court and subsequent remand was treated as lawful where the prison complied with a warrant issued by a competent court under the Prisoners (Attendance in Courts) Act, 1955.
