Questions about the Swiss judicial system?
This may seem like an odd inquiry, but I have a few questions about imprisonment and trial in Switzerland. Any links to information that may be useful to me, in English, or in French, would be greatly helpful as well.
Firstly, can a criminal be detained while awaiting trial? If so, for how long, and would he be placed in prison with other already convicted criminals?
Secondly, how much time typically elapses before an offender faces trial for a possible crime?
Lastly, what are some regulations surrounding when one is eligible for parole?
I'm in no legal trouble at all, and I haven't been in Switzerland in years. I'm simply interested in how criminal justice is approached there.
