    Do you have a relative or friend who has been arrested abroad? Do you know what you should do in these cases?

    The first thing you should do when having the news that a member of your family or friend has been arrested abroad is to contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of your country, and inquire about the consular assistance you may be given.

    It is necessary to bear in mind that when facing a detention in a foreign country, there may be problems associated with a different culture, language or way of life and in these cases it is always good to emphasize that even if the person is only traveling on this country, this does not exempt him from being subject to the laws and legal procedures of it. This implies that neither the Consulate nor the Embassy can interfere in these procedures of foreign criminal law, nor revoke a sentence already passed, but at the same time, it can guarantee counseling and attention, especially in poor-condition cases.
