Rights during detention
? Time Limit for Detention
A police officer is not allowed to detain an arrested person for more than 24 hours.
In the case a woman is arrested, the arrangements for her custody should be made properly.
?? Separate Custody Arrangements
Considering the modesty of women, men and women cannot be kept in the same prison.
?? Important Note
These provisions ensure that women's safety, dignity, and modesty are protected during detention. Separate facilities prevent any potential harassment or inappropriate contact, while the 24-hour limit ensures that detention does not become indefinite without proper legal procedures.
