Relatives in detention should do the following:
1. Obtain the notice of criminal detention from the case-handling organ, understand the suspected crime, and obtain the seized property unrelated to the case, such as ID card, bank card, mobile phone, etc.
2. Save money to send clothes at the detention center, or you can write to the criminal suspect to let him know that his family has learned the news of being detained in criminal detention, so as to avoid the criminal suspect being too nervous and afraid at the detention center;
3. Professional criminal lawyers entrusted by law firms through formal channels. The earlier a criminal case is entrusted, the greater the defense effect. Don't waste time. Lawyers can meet with criminal suspects in time to understand the case, prevent being lured, deceived or even extorted by torture, provide professional legal advice to criminal suspects and safeguard their legitimate rights and interests. At the same time, lawyers will also communicate with the case-handling unit to understand the details of the case and submit professional written defense opinions. After being detained, relatives can deal with it like this: The first thing to do is to send some clothes and money to the detention center with the Notice of Criminal Detention to meet the needs of the criminal suspect. Secondly, it is your right to communicate with the responsible police officer and apply for bail pending trial, whether you know the specific case or not. It is best to entrust a professional criminal defense lawyer to enter the detention center, meet the criminal suspect, understand the case, and apply to the public security organ for bail pending trial for criminal defense.
Legal basis:
Article 3 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) is responsible for the investigation, detention, execution and pre-trial of criminal cases. The people's procuratorate shall be responsible for the prosecution, approval of arrest, investigation and prosecution of cases directly accepted by procuratorial organs. The people's court is responsible for the trial. Except as otherwise specified by law, no other organ, organization or individual has the right to exercise these powers. In criminal proceedings, the people's courts, people's procuratorates and public security organs must strictly abide by the relevant provisions of this Law and other laws.
Derivative problem:
Can family members meet after criminal detention?
During criminal detention, family members have no right to meet criminal suspects. This is mainly because China's criminal procedure law clearly stipulates that the person who has the right to meet the suspect in the investigation process should be the defense lawyer of the suspect. According to the provisions of Articles 38 and 39 of the Criminal Procedure Law, defense lawyers have the right to meet the parties during the investigation of criminal cases. In other words, during criminal detention, the relatives and friends of the criminal suspect have no right to meet the detained criminal suspect. In addition, it should be pointed out that other defenders who do not have the status of lawyers cannot meet with criminal suspects. However, after the court makes a criminal judgment, the family members of the detainees who are serving their sentences have the right to ask for a meeting according to the regulations, but they need the approval or permission of the relevant authorities.
