(Video) “What To Do If You Got Arrested By The Police” – This Lawyer Tells Everything

Little did many people in this whole wide world know and acknowledge, that they actually have certain rights when they faced with certain problems in public. For example, when they got detained by the police. For that particular situation, they indeed have the right to receive more information than what they know at that time especially about why they were detained.

Recently, a particular video by a lawyer went viral on the TikTok app. The TikTok video is actually her own sharing about the people’s rights when they got detained by the police and it stole the attention of many netizens.

Here are the 6 things that the lawyer shared if you got arrested by the police:

1) Ask the police why you were arrested.

An arrest has to be made for certain reasons. Doing an arrest without cause is actually a wrongful action.

2) Ask the police to show you their authority card.

Each color has a different meaning. Make sure you know each color and its meaning.

3) Please cooperate with the police and don’t fight.

This is because, both parties just want to solve their respective problems. The police are also doing their job.

4) Ask the police which station you will be taken to.

The police can only take you to the nearest station in a fast time.

5) Ask for permission to contact family or a lawyer.

This facilitates negotiations for both parties. If you have a health problem, you should also inform the police.

6) Arrest without a court can only be done for the first 24 hours.

The police can only detain you for more than 24 hours if ordered by the court.
