After that, the person must be brought before an investigating judge to determine a preventive measure or be released.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I refuse to give evidence?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. No one is obliged to testify against themselves or their relatives. Refusing to give evidence is not proof of guilt and cannot be used against you.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I need a solicitor if I am not guilty?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes \u2014 especially if you are not guilty. Most cases are built on statements made in the first few hours without a lawyer, when a person was \u2018simply recounting what happened\u2019.<\/p>\n<h3>What should I do if they say \u2018sign this and you can go home\u2019?<\/h3>\n<p>Do not sign. This is the most common tactic used to obtain the documents the investigation needs. No statement guarantees your release.<\/p>\n<h3>When does the 72-hour period start?<\/h3>\n<p>From the moment of <strong>actual<\/strong> detention \u2014 that is, when you were deprived of your freedom of movement, not from the moment the statement was drawn up. This is a fundamental difference, and the time must be recorded.<\/p>\n<h3>What is a preventive measure and is it possible to avoid pre-trial detention?<\/h3>\n<p>These are restrictions imposed for the duration of the investigation: a personal undertaking, a surety, bail, house arrest or remand in custody. The latter is an exceptional measure, and the prosecutor must demonstrate the risks based on specific circumstances. It is very often possible to secure bail or house arrest.<\/p>\n<h3>Can detention be challenged?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. The investigating judge reviews the lawfulness of the detention. Violations (exceeding the time limit, lack of grounds, denial of access to a lawyer) may lead to the evidence being declared inadmissible.<\/p>\n<h3>Should my relatives be notified?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, a detained person has the right to have their relatives notified of their detention and whereabouts.<\/p>\n<h3>What should I bring to the consultation?<\/h3>\n<p>All the documents you have been given: the detention report, the notice of rights, the notice of suspicion, and court orders.<\/p>\n<h2>Contacting a lawyer upon detention at \u2018Svarog\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Call us straight away \u2014 not \u2018once we\u2019ve sorted things out\u2019 and not \u2018tomorrow morning\u2019.
