Section 67: Access to a detained person pending conclusion of terrorist investigation.

(1) Where a person is arrested under reasonable suspicion of having committed an offence under this Act, the relevant agency may direct that the person arrested be detained in custody for a period not more than 24 or 48 hours from the time of his arrest, as the case may be, without having access to—
(a) any person other than a medical officer of the relevant agency and a government appointed legal practitioner; or
(b) any phone or communication gadget.
(2) A direction under subsection (1) shall not be issued unless the relevant agency has reasonable grounds to suspect that giving access to any person, other than the medical officer or a government appointed lawyer as specified in that subsection shall—
(a) lead to interference with or destruction of the evidence connected with an offence under this Act, or to interference with or physical injury to other persons;
(b) lead to the alerting of other persons suspected of having committed an offence under this Act, or any other law, who are not yet arrested; or
(c) hinder the tracking, search and seizure of terrorist property.
(3) As soon as a direction is issued under subsection (1), the person detained shall be informed that he may, if he so wishes, be examined by a medical officer or speak to a government appointed lawyer.
(4) Where a person arrested under this Act is granted a bail within the period of detention stipulated under section 67 of this Act, the Court may make such orders, as may be necessary, for the purpose of enabling the relevant agency to monitor the movement and activities of the person, including an order that he be placed under house arrest.
(5) A person under house arrest under the provisions of subsection (4) shall—
(a) be monitored by the authorised officers of the relevant agency; and
(b) have no access to phones or communication gadgets.
