1. Is being taken away by the police station for 24 hours a detention?
Being taken away by the police station for 24 hours is not considered detention. The detention time is based on the time written in the ruling, and is calculated by the hour. The time from the time written in the award to the police station belongs to the time of investigation and verification, not to the time of detention.
Article 32 of the Regulations on Detention Facilities
The execution time of detention is calculated in days, from the date of detention to the next day as 1 day.
Second, what's the use of finding a lawyer in criminal detention?
1. Meet the suspect in time, learn about the case and life, and provide him with legal advice. As a suspect, he often doesn't know the law. Some situations are beneficial to him, but he can't make it clear, can't understand it, and even misses important details that are beneficial to him. This requires lawyers to provide him with professional legal advice after understanding the situation;
2. Ask the investigation organ about the charges involved;
3. Apply for bail pending trial, help find out the facts that are beneficial to the suspect, and apply to the judicial organ for bail pending trial;
4. If the investigation organ extorts a confession by torture in handling a case, it may act as an agent to appeal and accuse;
5, according to the facts of the case combined with the legal provisions, published a lawyer's opinion, found that the facts of the case are unclear and the evidence is insufficient, suggesting that the judicial organs not approve the arrest.
In short, if one party is detained on suspicion of a criminal offence, the family will hire a lawyer as soon as possible, and the lawyer will intervene in the case as soon as possible, which will help protect the legitimate rights and interests of the suspect and often contribute to the outcome of the case.
I hope the above contents are helpful to you. Please consult a professional lawyer if you have any other questions.
Legal basis: According to Article 32 of the Regulations on Detention Facilities, the time for executing detention is calculated in days, and the number of days from the date of detention to the second day is 1 day.
