Its should be restricted in the face of new and dangerous threat which terrorism poses. A man isn't a criminal until found guilty by the court of law,before being convicted by the court,he has a right not to be detained for a period of time,less than 24 hours. The man,if granted bail could do more havoc in the society without getting caught.Most of this terrorist are ready to give up their life for it.I say Habeas corpus should be restricted for the purpose of combating terrorism. http:// hansard.millbanksystems. jun/24/habeas-corpus-suspension-bill Side: Perfect idea/Yes!!!

Which abolishes the right to be presumed innocent before guilty, the right to due process, etc. Habeas corpus does not exist independent of other rights. Moreover, suspension of the right is effectively abolishment since there is no longer any guarantee to it; it is a privilege rather than an actual right. Side: No! very bad idea.
Yes, it absolutely is. It presumes guilt before innocence and sets a dangerous precedent for detaining people without an adequate standard of evidence. If there were evidence adequate for detention then this would not be a case of restricted/violated habeas corpus. Side: Perfect idea/Yes!!!
