Can you reconcile after being detained?

You can't. Generally speaking, before the police station makes a detention penalty, the two sides will mediate, and if they reach a settlement, they will not be sentenced to detention. Only when a settlement cannot be reached, the police station will detain it. It is meaningless to propose reconciliation at this time. Being detained in criminal detention shows that the result has constituted a minor injury. According to the relevant laws and regulations, fighting is an illegal act, which violates the public security punishment law and will be investigated for administrative responsibility. If the victim is slightly injured or more, it has constituted a crime and will be investigated for criminal responsibility. Criminal detention is a compulsory means for public security organs to impose on criminal suspects in the process of investigating cases. After the public security organ has completed the investigation of the criminal suspect, if it determines that the criminal suspect is suspected of committing a crime, it shall report it to the procuratorate for approval; if it is suspected of committing a crime, it shall be approved by the procuratorate and the public security organ shall arrest the criminal suspect. After criminal detention, lawyers hired by the parties or the families of criminal suspects can reach mediation with the victims, but the success of mediation and whether the criminal case is closed belong to two legal relationships. If mediation is reached in a criminal case, the criminal suspect may be mitigated or given a lighter punishment, but whether or not to pursue criminal responsibility shall be decided by the public security organ, the procuratorate and the court.

Types of detention

(1) Administrative detention refers to the most severe punishment given to general illegal acts in violation of the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment, which belongs to one of administrative punishments. Retention period is greater than 1 day and less than 15 days. For multiple illegal acts, the combined execution of detention shall not exceed 20 days.

(2) judicial custody refers to the compulsory measures taken against those who obstruct civil and administrative proceedings, and the longest detention time is 15 days. It is worth noting that judicial custody is generally detained for the first time for the parties who are "capable of fulfilling the decision to refuse to execute the judgment".

(3) Criminal detention refers to compulsory measures taken against parties suspected of committing crimes. Compared with the first two, this detention measure is the most severe and the detention time is the longest.

Legal basis:

Criminal Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China

Article 177 If a criminal suspect has no criminal facts or is under any of the circumstances specified in Article 16 of this Law, the people's procuratorate shall make a decision not to prosecute. If the circumstances of the crime are minor and it is not necessary to sentence or exempt from punishment according to the provisions of the Criminal Law, the people's procuratorate may make a decision not to prosecute. In cases where the people's procuratorate decides not to prosecute, the property sealed up, detained or frozen during the investigation shall be released at the same time. If the plaintiff who is sorry needs to be given administrative punishment, punishment or confiscation of illegal income, the people's procuratorate shall put forward procuratorial opinions and transfer them to the relevant competent authorities for handling. The relevant competent authorities shall promptly notify the people's procuratorate of the results.
