Human rights is a part of everyone. Everyone is entitled to rights. There are 30 Human Rights. No Unfair Detainment is #9. It is discussed​ here. Nobody has the right to put us in prison without good reason and keep us there,or to send us away from our country.
​Imagine for a minute, you have your whole day mapped out, getting part way through it, when a police officer grabs you from behind. Suddenly, he slaps handcuffs on you and puts you behind bars. All this without a single word. No questions answered, no explanations given. This is an example of unfair detainment. What is the worst part for you? Being in jail? Not knowing why? or both? For me, it would be not knowing why. Why? Because I could not defend myself.​

So, when I can't defend myself, another human right is taken away. See how they are all linked together........​​​​​
