यह क्यों है

कुछ उच्च-जोखिम या संवेदनशील बंदियों के लिए, उन्हें वैध न्यायालयी पेशी हेतु भी सुरक्षित जेल से शारीरिक रूप से बाहर ले जाना गंभीर सुरक्षा या सार्वजनिक-व्यवस्था जोखिम (उदाहरणार्थ, फरार होने, हिंसा, या अशांति का खतरा) पैदा कर सकता है। यह प्रावधान सरकार को ऐसे बंदियों की आवाजाही पर ताला लगाने की एक अधिमात्रा शक्ति देता है, परंतु उससे पहले सार्वजनिक व्यवस्था और जनहित जैसे विशिष्ट कारकों का आकलन करना अनिवार्य ठहराता है, ताकि इस शक्ति का मनमाना उपयोग न हो।
