94. In countries where the law permits imprisonment for debt, or by order of a court under any other
non-criminal process, persons so imprisoned shall not be subjected to any greater restriction or
severity than is necessary to ensure safe custody and good order. Their treatment shall be not less
favourable than that of untried prisoners, with the reservation, however, that they may possibly be
required to work.
E. Persons arrested or detained without charge
95. Without prejudice to the provisions of article 9 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political
Rights, persons arrested or imprisoned without charge shall be accorded the same protection as that
accorded under part I and part II, section C. Relevant provisions of part II, section A, shall likewise be
applicable where their application may be conducive to the benefit of this special group of persons in
custody, provided that no measures shall be taken implying that re-education or rehabilitation is in any
way appropriate to persons not convicted of any criminal offence.
