Section 100. Search for persons wrongfully confined
If any District Magistrate, Sub-divisional Magistrate
or Magistrate of the first class has reason to believe that any person is confined under such circumstances
that the confinement amounts to an offence, he may issue a search-warrant, and the person to whom such
warrant is directed may search for the person so confined; and such search shall be made in accordance
therewith, and the person, if found, shall be immediately taken before a Magistrate, who shall make such
order as in the circumstances of the case seems proper.
