Answer: C

Explanation: Habeas corpus, which protected a person from being imprisoned for an unlimited period of time without a trial, was introduced in the Magna Carta. The document asserted, “No Freeman shall be taken or imprisoned, or be disseized or exiled or in anyway destroyed, nor will we go upon him nor send upon him except by the lawful judgment of his peers, or by the law of the land.”[2] This, likewise, ensured freemen who had been accused of crimes the right to trial by those of equal rank.
