The constitution of India, ensures Fundamental Rights under Articles 12 to 35 of which rights which deserve better focus are the rights of accused persons. The reason being, the accused who are under cloud of suspicion at the threshold itself is treated as the convict and left in lurch even by their own brethren for the very reason, he is an accused. On the premise he is not getting the due attention which he is entitled under the Articles 20 to 22 of the Constitution of India. Thus, my efforts in this study would be to follow the guiding principles laid down under Constitution of India in the area of Human Rights especially towards the accused person’s right that are bestowed on them and the potential lacunae in that area.
