Why did the British Parliament pass this law?
O to keep a king from holding people in jail for no reason
O to prevent Charles Il from being beheaded like his father
O to punish those who fought Charles I in the English Civil War
O to increase the king's power over Parliament

O to keep a king from holding people in jail for no reason

Explanation:

The English parliament sought to prevent the king from promoting abuses of power, in addition to promoting protection for the entire population and even members of parliament. For that reason, they passed this law. The idea behind this approval is that the king does not have the power to determine whether a person should be imprisoned, according to his principles. In other words, we can affirm that parliament passed the law to prevent a king from holding people in prison for no reason
