The detention center is an institution that holds criminal suspects who have been arrested and detained according to law. If the remaining sentence of a criminal sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment is less than three months before delivery for execution, the detention center shall execute it on his behalf. To detain a criminal suspect in a detention center, one should rely on an arrest warrant, a criminal detention certificate issued by a public security organ or a state security organ at or above the county level, or a certificate issued by a public security organ, a state security organ, a prison, a reform-through-labor institution, a people's court or a people's procuratorate at or above the county level to hunt down and escort the criminal suspect for temporary detention. If there is no such certificate, or the record of the certificate is inconsistent with the actual situation, it will not be taken into custody. The detention center is mainly used to detain criminal suspects who have been taken compulsory measures, which is characterized by short time (the remaining sentence is less than three months). The competent department is the public security organ.
Detention center refers to a place where public security organs detain a specific person for a short period of time according to law. Detainees include criminal detainees. Criminal detention is a compulsory measure for public security organs to restrict the personal freedom of active criminals or major suspects in an emergency. The purpose is to prevent active criminals or major suspects or suspects who should be arrested from evading investigation, trial or continuing criminal activities. When the public security bureau detains a criminal, it must produce a detention permit and order him to sign or seal it. After detention, the family members of the detainee or the unit to which he belongs shall be informed of the reasons and place of detention within 24 hours, except in cases where the investigation cannot be notified. Detainees should be questioned within 24 hours after detention. If it is found that it should not be detained, it must be released immediately and a release certificate must be issued. The object of detention is mainly administrative detention and people who are decided by the court in judicial custody. The detention period is generally fifteen days, and the longest is twenty days.
