Is it serious to be taken away by foreign police to assist in the investigation?

Legal analysis: being taken away by foreign police to assist in the investigation is not necessarily serious. It should be judged according to the specific situation. It is necessary to find out that the policeman who took the person away is a case-handling officer of the local public security organ, and then entrust a lawyer to contact the case-handling unit and ask about the alleged charges. The public security organ will notify the family members within 24 hours after normal criminal detention. After the public security organ or procuratorate determines the criminal suspect, it is impossible to take him to the detention center indefinitely. According to the law, the investigation organ has at most 30 days to initially find out whether the suspect committed a crime and what kind of crime he committed. During these 30 days, if the investigation organ collects some evidence and thinks that the detained person is really suspected of committing a crime, it will apply to the procuratorate for approval to arrest the suspect. The longest time for the procuratorate to decide whether to approve the arrest is 7 days, so the longest time together is 37 days.

Legal basis: Article 34 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC). A criminal suspect has the right to entrust a defender from the day when he is interrogated for the first time by the investigation organ or takes compulsory measures. During the investigation, only lawyers can be entrusted as defenders. The defendant has the right to entrust a defender at any time.

When interrogating a criminal suspect for the first time or taking compulsory measures against him, the investigation organ shall inform him that he has the right to entrust a defender. The people's procuratorate shall, within three days from the date of receiving the case materials transferred for examination and prosecution, inform the criminal suspect that he has the right to entrust a defender. The people's court shall, within three days from the date of accepting the case, inform the defendant of the right to entrust a defender. If a criminal suspect or defendant requests to entrust a defender while in custody, the people's court, the people's procuratorate and the public security organ shall promptly convey it.

If a criminal suspect or defendant is in custody, his guardian or near relative may also entrust a defender.

After accepting the entrustment of a criminal suspect or defendant, the defender shall promptly inform the case-handling organ.
