Can you find the detained person by calling the detention center?

Legal analysis: Call the detention center, and the detention center won't tell you. The situation of the detainees in the detention center is the secret of judicial work and cannot be disclosed casually. Moreover, even if the family members of the detainees want to inquire, the detention center cannot confirm the identity of the inquirer on the phone, and will not inform the relevant information for security reasons. Therefore, it is recommended to bring your identity documents and go to the detention center for face-to-face questioning.
