Detention is the process whereby a state or private citizen lawfully holds aperson by removing his or her freedom or liberty at that time. This can be due to (pending) criminal charges preferred against the individual pursuant to a prosecution or to protect a person or property.

Their rights......

A person detained on a criminal charge shall be brought before a judicial or other authority provided by law promptly after his arrest. ... A detained person shall, when brought before such an authority, have the right to make a statement on the treatment received by him while in custody.

Detention is the process whereby a state or private citizen lawfully holds a person by removing his or her freedom or liberty at that time.

The rights of a detained person are as follows:

1. To be informed of the reason of arrest and detention.

2. To be produced before the nearest magistrate within 24 hours of arrest.

3. Right to consult a lawyer or engage a lawyer for his defence.
