Pretrial Imprisonment Order

The Public Prosecution, ordinarily, has a discretionary power to issue the pretrial imprisonment order unless there is a special case described in different regulations and provisions.

After questioning the accused, the Public Prosecution member may issue a pretrial imprisonment order, if he or she is of the opinion that the evidence is satisfactory and the deed is a felony or crime that is punished and penalized by other than a fine.

Such pretrial imprisonment orders shall include the name of the accused, his or her title, nationality, occupation, residence, charges and allegations, date of the order, location and time of appearance or attendance, name and signature of the public prosecution member, and it has to be stamped by the official seal.
