Administrative detention is different from criminal detention. Criminal detention is generally held in detention centers, but administrative detention is not. Moreover, administrative detention does not constitute a crime and the punishment is much lighter. Criminal detention belongs to some criminal suspects.
Where is the public security administrative detention?
Administrative detention is held in a detention center. The detention center shall promptly detain the detainee with the detention decision of the detention decision organ. If it is necessary to detain in a different place, the detention decision-making organ shall issue relevant legal documents and a written explanation of the need for detention in a different place, and shall be approved by the competent public security organ of the detention center in a different place.
