Who has the right to detain?

The right to detain typically belongs to law enforcement officers, who can detain individuals suspected of committing a crime to ensure public safety and facilitate investigations. In some circumstances, private citizens may have the right to detain someone if they witness a crime in progress, but this is generally limited to preventing harm and must be done in a reasonable manner. Additionally, certain regulatory bodies and agencies may have the authority to detain individuals for specific legal violations, such as Immigration or health regulations.
