What families can do in behalf of people arrested or detained
The family needs to approach a Red Cross Office and open an allegation of arrest.
The ICRC takes up all allegations of arrest that are reported to it with the authorities in order to clarify what has happened to the individuals concerned. It endeavours to visit those detained or arrested as quickly as possible in order to ensure that the conditions in which they are being held comply with national and international standards. The information is reported back to the family.
