The lack of such health-promoting acts in circumstances of 'temporary' imprisonment (when repeatedly extended), in secret detention in unauthorised facilities, and so forth, is a strong argument against such practices. Let us also pray that the information being gathered from these innocent people is considered by the administrators of justice, rather than by those who consider themselves only prosecutors of general policies of suspicion.
