    There calling it “being detained” for a reason.

    You are legally speaking not arrested and also not free to go. Its a legal grey area part of civil and not criminal law.

    They don’t need you to be suspect of crime and you can be held indefinitely.

      Ah yes if we just keep using a new synonym every time, that means we have to start all legal arguments from scratch.
