The rights against being held, often referred to as rights against unlawful detention, protect individuals from being held in custody without just cause or due process. This includes the right to be informed of the reasons for arrest, the right to legal representation, and the right to a fair hearing. These protections are fundamental to ensuring personal liberty and preventing arbitrary detention by authorities. They are enshrined in various legal frameworks, including constitutional law and international human rights treaties.
