Petition To reduce the time suspected terrorist can be held without charge.

More details

We feel that the time suspected terrorist can be held without charge is ludicrous. We feel that 28 days is too much and it should be reduced, are opinion is that one week is the ideal time. The reason we feel that 28 days is too long is if that a person is proved innocent that's a month of their life taken away. A week is also more than enough time for the police to gather enough evidence to mount a case against the individual. Are opinion is that 28 day breaches your right to freedom.
