Non-family members of the criminal suspect may not entrust a lawyer to visit the criminal suspect. Only the criminal suspect himself or his close relatives can hire a lawyer. Lawyers provide legal assistance to criminal suspects, including meeting them in detention centers instead of visiting them. Should be close relatives: parents, spouses, children, brothers and sisters. After accepting the entrustment, lawyers exercise not the right to visit, but the right to provide legal aid or investigation. In addition, under normal circumstances, non-immediate family members are not allowed to make such entrustment.
Criminal suspect, also known as suspect, suspect and suspect, refers to the title of the person who was criminally prosecuted for suspected crime before the procuratorial organ formally filed a public prosecution with the court. A criminal suspect is different from a criminal. According to the principle of presumption of innocence, criminal suspects are innocent unless they are proved guilty through trial.
