American law outlines a series of protections for those accused of crimes but not yet convicted. (Like the 4th-6th amendments)
Does your country have any unique/novel protections of the rights of potentially innocent people accused but yet to be convicted?
If not are there any protections you think should be in place?
No, that’s not what I meant.
You said above > Passwords are contents of the mind, and therefore protected
So I am asking, isn’t it protected in the same way if it is a content of a piece of paper in the defendant’s possession?
Can they force him to give it to them, to tell them where it is, to confirm if it is his own piece of paper etc.
The knowledge of the location of the paper is a content of the mind. The defendant does not have to answer any question.
No, but they can get a warrant to search his property and find the paper on their own.
