Ubisoft execs and employees arrested over sexual misconduct allegations
Detained for questioning, not arrested. Still serious, but wanted to clarify.
23 0 ReplyIn the US, if you're moved to another location for that amount of time involuntarily that's an arrest not a detention. Seems the French code gives more police powers than our constitution.
Edit: they need something similar to what we'd call probable cause and I'd personally call it an arrest without charges https://www.sba-avocats.com/Criminal-defense-attorney-paris-france-police-custody-mobile.html
They also have similar rights against self incrimination in France.
