Rights Campaign Entitled: “Pretrial Detention… an Exception, Not a Punishment”

What is pretrial detention?

Pretrial detention is an exceptional measure taken during the investigation of a defendant accused of a crime, before a final judgment of conviction is issued.

Legally, it aims to ensure the proper conduct of the investigation and trial, not to punish the defendant.
