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. The same reasoning will apply to appearance by an 'agent'. In other words, if an 'agent' is in 'truth and substance' an agent, the detenu may appear through him. But if the 'agent' is a legal practitioner, appearance by him as of right will be barred. But a 'friend' or an 'agent' of the detenu who in essentially a comrade in the profession of the detenu for which he is detained, such a 'friend' or 'agent' will also be barred from appearance on behalf of the detenu, Devji Vallabhbhai Tandel v. Administrator of Goa, AIR 1982 SC 1029: (1982) 2 SCC 222: (1982) 3 SCR 553....
