The administrative or police official to whom the arrestee has been delivered may place the arrestee under custody or provisionally release him. When the arrest was conducted by virtue of a warrant, a report shall further be made to the authority issuing the warrant. If the authority issuing the warrant wants the arrestee, the arrestee shall be delivered to him.

If the arrest was conducted by a citizen, the name, occupation, and address of the arrester, as well as the information and circumstances about the arrest, shall be recorded, and the arrester shall then be required to give a countersignature.

In the event of necessity, the official or citizen conducting the arrest may have the arrestee medically treated before delivering him according to this section.

Section85.The official conducting an arrest or receiving the delivery of an arrestee has the power to search the body of the alleged offender and seize all the articles which may be used as evidence.

Such search must be conducted politely. If a woman is to be searched, another woman must be engaged to conduct the search.

The official has the power to retain any seized article until the finality of the case. Upon finish of the case, it shall be returned to the alleged offender or to another person who has the right to claim the return thereof, save where the court orders otherwise.
