<br/><br/> This book presents a comparative analysis of law on preventive detention. Acknowledging that such legislation is currently a reality the initial chapters set out codes for the law itself, protection of detainees, minimum rules for the protection of persons detained without trial, and the roles of medical and law enforcement professionals. The main part of the book is taken up with description and discussion of 16 common law jurisdictions, mainly in Africa and Asia. These include Malaysia and Singapore.
