#2 It is not window dressing, it is the law (one made dozens of years ago, well before Khomeini): people can be interrogated for 24 hours, after that they have to be released or the police has to present them to a judge. In drug and terrorism cases delay is longer: four days for terrorism, for drugs I don't remember if it is two days or four dayts.
