Accept interrogation; 2. Prevent excessive behavior; 3. Restrict movement; 4. Sentenced to death.

For prisoners who have been convicted, the police need to give the prisoner money during interrogation. Wearing handcuffs is also to "restrict" the criminals, otherwise the criminals don't know what they will do when they get emotional, and they may even take the opportunity to hurt the interrogating police. Therefore, when interrogating some criminals, handcuffs are placed on them. Handcuffing is also a normal thing.
2. Prevent excessive behavior. Secondly, handcuffs, shackles and police ropes all have the same function, which is to prevent criminals from excessive behavior. Some criminals may have psychological problems or temporary If they cannot accept the reality, they may do some extreme behaviors, such as hurting others, hurting themselves, smashing things, etc. The use of these three tools is also to prevent them from engaging in extreme behaviors. If they are suicidal, they will Just tie them up with police rope.
3. Restriction of movement. In addition, detention centers sometimes encounter some special criminals. For example, some criminals get sick in the detention center. Prisoners in the detention center also have the right to see a doctor. However, in order to prevent criminals from seeing a doctor during the process, If they try to escape or injure someone, they will be handcuffed and shackled. The purpose of this is to make it easier for the police to control them. The shackles can also limit their walking pace and speed.
4. After being sentenced to death, all death row prisoners in the detention center will be shackled, and the shackles of the death row prisoners weigh dozens of kilograms. For some death row prisoners who want to commit suicide or do not accept the death penalty, They will also be tied up with police ropes. This is done to prevent them from committing suicide and also to allow them to accept the punishment quietly.
