La legislación de numerosos países reconoce la vulnerabilidad de los acusados durante el período inmediatamente posterior a la detención y exige a la policía que ponga al sospechoso a disposición judicial “prontamente” o al menos en un plazo de 48 horas. Se entiende que, una vez que el tribunal haya tomado una decisión, el sospechoso será puesto en libertad(sin cargos, derivado a otros programas o puesto en libertad bajo fianza) o trasladado a un centro de detención preventiva concebido para estancias de mayor duración. Sin embargo, en la práctica, en muchos países los sospechosos pueden permanecer bajo custodia policial durante varios meses o más de manera arbitraria o por orden del fiscal o del juez. 3, record 1, Spanish, - custodia%20policial
