They were blessed with a female child, but after some time, respondent 7 and his family members started raising suspicion alleging that she is suffering from an evil soul and used to torture her physically and mentally. A complaint was filed in police thana and during counselling the husband and his family agreed to take Juhi with them since that day there is no information about the well being of Juhi Sahu. Thus instant writ in the nature of habeas corpus, was filed seeking directions to the respondents\/authorities to produce her missing daughter, Juhi Sahu, before this Court.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The order mentions that statements of relatives of both sides of the missing person were recorded, but nothing substantive was found with regard to her whereabouts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court observed that perusal of record would show that during the course of hearing, this Court issued various directions in respect of the investigation to trace out the missing person Juhi Sahu, and in compliance of various orders, respondents 1 to 6\/ police officials have filed various status reports\/affidavit in respect of investigation of the matter, in which, they have categorically stated that despite their all possible efforts, they were not able to trace out the missing Juhi Sahu<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The writ of habeas corpus is an effective means of immediate release from the unlawful detention, whether in prison or in private custody. Physical confinement is not necessary to constitute detention. Control and custody are sufficient. For issuance of a writ of habeas corpus, the applicant must show a prima facie case of unlawful detention of the subject.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court relied on judgment <em>Kanu Sanyal v. District Magistrate, Darjeeling<\/em> (1973) 2 SCC 674 and traced the history, nature and scope of the writ of habeas corpus. It was observed <strong>\u201cit is a writ of immemorial antiquity whose first threads are woven deeply \u201cwithin the seamless web of history and untraceable among countless incidents that constituted a total historical pattern of Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court observed that the constitutional Courts across the country predominantly held in catena of judgments that establishing a ground of &#8220;illegal detention&#8221; and a strong suspicion about any such &#8220;illegal detention&#8221; is a condition precedent for moving a Habeas Corpus petition and the Constitutional Courts shall not entertain a Habeas Corpus petition, where there is no allegation of &#8220;illegal detention&#8221; or suspicion about any such &#8220;illegal detention&#8221;. Cases of missing persons cannot be brought under the provision of the Habeas Corpus petition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It was further observed that cases of missing persons are to be registered under the regular provisions of the Indian Penal Code and the Police officials concerned are bound to investigate the same in the manner prescribed under the Code of Criminal Procedure. Such cases are to be dealt as regular cases by the competent Court of Law and the extraordinary jurisdiction of the Constitutional Courts cannot be invoked for the purpose of dealing with such cases of missing persons.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court held <em>it is not a fit case for issuance of a writ of habeas corpus. Therefore, we decline to exercise the jurisdiction for issuance of writ of habeas corpus, and dismiss the writ petition, leaving it open to the petitioner and respondents to proceed in accordance with law.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[Jaymati Sahu v.
