When the public security organ detains a person, it must produce a detention certificate and ask the person to sign or seal it. After detention, unless there are circumstances that hinder the investigation or it is impossible to notify the detainee, the reason for the detention and the place of detention shall be notified to the detainee's family or unit within 24 hours. Detainees should be questioned within 24 hours of detention. If it is found that he should not be detained, he must be released immediately with a release certificate.
