Editing Habeas corpus (section)

===Italy===
The right to freedom from arbitrary detention is guaranteed by Article&nbsp;13 of the [[Constitution of Italy]], which states:<ref>{{cite web |title=The Italian Constitution |url=http://www.quirinale.it/page/costituzione |publisher=The official website of the Presidency of the Italian Republic}}</ref> {{blockquote|Personal liberty is inviolable. No one may be detained, inspected, or searched nor otherwise subjected to any restriction of personal liberty except by order of the Judiciary stating a reason and only in such cases and in such manner as provided by the law. In exceptional circumstances and under such conditions of necessity and urgency as shall conclusively be defined by the law, the police may take provisional measures that shall be referred within 48 hours to the Judiciary for validation and which, in default of such validation in the following 48&nbsp;hours, shall be revoked and considered null and void. Any act of physical and moral violence against a person subjected to restriction of personal liberty shall be punished. The law shall establish the maximum duration of preventive detention.}}

This implies that within 48 hours every arrest made by a police force must be validated by a court.

Furthermore, if subject to a valid detention, an arrested can ask for a review of the detention to another court, called the Review Court (''Tribunale del Riesame'', also known as the Freedom Court, ''Tribunale della Libertà'').
