Will the police station inform the family members when they are detained for fighting?

If you are detained for fighting, the police station will inform your family.

Whether it is criminal detention or administrative detention, family members will be given a notice of punishment and called. This is a mandatory rule, but also to protect the legitimate rights and interests of suspects.

If a decision is made to impose administrative detention, it shall be sent to the detention center for execution by the public security organ that made the decision. Generally, the police can take the illegal or criminal suspect back to the corresponding department for detention for 24 hours by summoning, and the maximum time shall not exceed 48 hours with the approval of the superior, but this is detention, not detention.

Administrative detention is the most severe administrative punishment, which is usually applied to acts that seriously violate public security management but do not constitute a crime. Warnings and fines are not enough to punish. Therefore, the law has strict regulations on its establishment, implementation conditions and procedures. The ruling power of administrative detention belongs to the public security organs at or above the county level. Generally, the time limit is within 10 day, and the heavier one is not more than 15 day. After the announcement of the administrative detention decision, during the application for reconsideration and administrative litigation, if the punished person and his relatives find a guarantor or pay a deposit according to the regulations, they may apply to the administrative subject to suspend the execution of administrative detention. Administrative detention is different from criminal detention and judicial custody.

Article 85 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), when a public security organ detains a person, it must produce a detention permit.

After detention, the detained person shall be immediately sent to the detention center for custody, and shall not exceed twenty-four hours. Unless it is impossible to notify or the notification of suspected crimes endangering national security or terrorist activities may hinder the investigation, the family members of the detained person shall be notified within 24 hours after detention. After the circumstances that hinder the investigation disappear, the family members of the detained person shall be notified immediately.

Article 86 The public security organ shall interrogate the detained person within 24 hours after detention. If it is found that it should not be detained, it must be released immediately and a release certificate will be issued.

Article 87 When a public security organ requests the arrest of a criminal suspect, it shall write a letter of approval of the arrest, together with case files and evidence, and submit it to the people's procuratorate at the same level for examination and approval. When necessary, the people's procuratorate may send people to participate in the discussion of major cases by public security organs.
