What should I do if my family is criminally detained?

Formal detention is a temporary compulsory measure for criminal suspects and defendants. The purpose of criminal detention now is to ensure the smooth progress of the lawsuit.

If you have family members or friends under criminal detention, you should take the following measures:

1. Get the facts of the suspected crime from the public security organ or procuratorate handling the case at the first time.

2. Relatives and friends have the right to know the place of detention from the case-handling organ. According to the law, summons and detention shall not exceed 12 hours, and criminal suspects shall not be detained in disguised form by summons or detention. After detaining a person, the public security organ shall notify the detainee's family or his unit within 24 hours of the reason and place of detention, unless it hinders the investigation or cannot inform him.

3. If you have been detained for dozens of days without being informed of the detention, it is usually the case that the prisoner is caught in a foreign country. In this case, the suspect's family can contact the local police station directly by telephone to find out whether there is a detention notice, so as to know the place and reason of the prisoner's detention.

4. If the family members know the place where their relatives are detained or arrested, they can hire a lawyer to meet in the detention center in time to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the parties.

In addition, I also remind you that if it is a normal judicial procedure, relatives or family members should assist the judicial organs in handling cases and be law-abiding citizens.

Don't go to court, let the law serve you better.
