Authors

Keywords:

Preventive detention, Principle of presumption of innocence, Inter-American system

Abstract

The objective of this article is to discuss the concepts of preventive detention and the presumption of innocence, whose treatment and analysis have always generated wide debate. Some consider the need for one to the detriment of the other, while others state that in no case can the right to the presumption of innocence be violated. This confrontation becomes latent when a person is considered suspected of having committed a crime and subjected to criminal proceedings. The methodology used was bibliographical research.
