The detainees are those whose personal freedom is restricted because of detention and arrest of the suspects.After the establishment of P.R.China，Chinese legislature promulgated law to protect the human rights of detainees.Now the detainees’ basic rights of living and humanitarian treatment are protected，citizens are exempted from being detained unlawfully，the right to defense of detainees is guaranteed，detention beyond the legally prescribed time limits is corrected，and the detainees have the right for judicial redress.However，the situation concerning the right of detainee is still problematic in some way.Therefore，we need rely more on none-detained enforcement measures，promote recognizance system and pay special attention to the detainees’ right to defense.
