The criminal procedure law does not explicitly stipulate detention to meet family members. If a criminal suspect is detained in criminal detention, he can only be interviewed by a defense lawyer or other defenders before the judgment, and the defense lawyer is not monitored when he meets the criminal suspect or defendant.

Criminal procedure law
Article 39
Defense lawyers can meet and correspond with criminal suspects and defendants in custody. Other defenders, with the permission of the people's courts and people's procuratorates, may also meet and correspond with criminal suspects and defendants in custody.
If a defense lawyer holds a lawyer's practice certificate, a law firm's certificate, a power of attorney or a letter of legal aid to ask for a meeting with the criminal suspect or defendant in custody, the detention center shall arrange the meeting in time, which shall not exceed 48 hours at the latest.
In criminal cases endangering national security and terrorist activities, defense lawyers should obtain permission from the investigation organ when meeting with the criminal suspect in custody during the investigation. The investigation organ shall notify the detention center of the above situation in advance.
When a defense lawyer meets a criminal suspect or defendant in custody, he can understand the case and provide legal advice.
From the date when the case is transferred for examination and prosecution, the relevant evidence may be verified with the criminal suspect or defendant. Defense lawyers are not monitored when meeting with criminal suspects and defendants.
