WHAT IS THIS PORTAL ABOUT?
The portal you have found is entirely devoted to the subject of pre-trial detention. It is the only isolation measure provided for in Polish law that may be applied at the stage of pre-trial and court proceedings. It involves placing the person concerned in a pre-trial detention center in order to isolate them from the current environment, which is intended to help in the efficient conduct of criminal proceedings.
Pre-trial detention is a serious ailment not only in the life of the arrested person but also his relatives or colleagues. It is certainly a difficult experience, but one can prepare well to mitigate its consequences.
WHY TEMPORARY ARREST?
We believe that this topic is so important that it is definitely worth devoting more space to it. At present, there is a worrying trend towards an increase in the number of pre-trial detentions used. If we additionally take into account that nearly 98% of the prosecutor’s requests are accepted by the courts, a gloomy picture of the whole emerges. However, we believe that the professional help of a defense lawyer is able to prevent temporary arrest or minimize its negative aspects.
