for up to 11 days. d) Those legally arrested should not be held in facilities under the control of their interrogators or investigators for more than the time required by law to obtain a judicial warrant of pre-trial detention, which should not exceed 48 hours. After this period they should be transferred to a pre-trial facility under a different authority, where no further unsupervised contact with the interrogators or investigators should be permitted; Disruptive Activities (Control and Punishment) Ordinance (TADO) and the 1989 Public Security Act (PSA)) effectively provided the police and the military with sweeping powers to detain suspects for preventive reasons, in some cases for up to 12 months; (Section 15 (2) of the State Cases Act requires that arrested persons be produced before the “appropriate authority” within 24 hours, and prohibits any person from being held for a longer period without orders of such authority). Detainee registers were poorly kept, if at all. According to Article 24 (3) of the Interim Constitution 2007, detainees must be presented before a judge within 24 hours of arrest. Non-governmental sources: There are some significant gaps in constitutional protection, e.g. with regard to the rights of non-citizens, to liberty and security and provisions permitting derogation from rights during a state of emergency. Non-governmental sources: Detainees in police custody continue to be held beyond the 24 hours permitted by law. A lack of accurate record keeping in many prisons and police detention facilities makes it difficult to hold police personnel accountable for these violations . In practice, Article 24 (3) is not respected. In many cases detainees are not provided with arrest warrants and are held in police custody for up to several weeks. The Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Control and Punishment) Ordinance (TADO) 2006 – under which many detainees were held without charge or trial under the previous Government – expired at the end of October 2006 and has not been renewed. Most detainees held under TADO were gradually released after April 2006. Non-governmental sources: In March 2006 the Office of the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers opened the Human Rights Central Registry, whose functions included, inter alia, maintaining a list of detainees throughout the country. National Army, Home Office, Armed Police Force (APF) Non-governmental sources: According to the Police Act, the police authorities are obliged to maintain a standardized register indicating all complaints and charges, the names of the arrested persons, the name of the complainants, the offense for which persons were arrested, the arms or A/HRC/13/39/Add.6 117 e) maintenance of custody registers be scrupulously ensured, including recording of the time and place of arrest, the identity of the personnel, the actual place of detention, the state of health upon arrival of the person at the detention centre, the time family and a lawyer were contacted and visited the detainee, and information on Legislation (2004 Terrorist and
