Correct Answer - Option 4 : All of the above

The correct answer is Option [4].i,e. All of the above.

  • The Indian National Army trials,
    • They are also called the Red Fort trials, were the British Indian trial by courts-martial of a number of officers of the Indian National Army between November 1945 and May 1946, for charges variously for treason, torture, murder, and abetment to murder during World War II
    • The first, and most famous, of the approximately ten trials held in the Red Fort in Delhi. In total, approximately ten courts-martial were held. The first of these, and the most celebrated one, was the joint court-martial of Colonel Prem Sahgal, Colonel Gurbaksh Singh Dhillon, and Major General Shah Nawaz Khan. 
    • The 3 had been officers in the British Indian Army and were taken as prisoners of war in Malaya, Singapore, and Burma. They had, like a large number of other troops and officers of the British Indian Army, joined the Indian National Army and later fought in Imphal and Burma alongside the Japanese forces in allegiance to Azad Hind.
    •  These 3 came to be the only defendants in the INA trials who were charged with "waging war against the King-Emperor" (the Indian Army Act, 1911 did not provide for a separate charge for treason) as well as murder and abatement of murder. 
    • Those charged later only faced trial for torture and murder or abatement of murder. The trials covered arguments based on Military Law, Constitutional Law, International Law, and Politics.
