Friend or agent
Friend or agent, a 'friend' who, in truth and substance, is a friend of the detenu may appear for the detenu but if such a 'friend' also happens to be a legal practitioner, he cannot, as of right, appear before the Advisory Board on behalf of the detenu.

But if the 'agent' is a legal practitioner, appearance by him as of right will be barred.
