Does Detention Time Count Toward Prison Sentence?

According to Clause 1, Article 38 of the Penal Code 2015, it is stipulated: Fixed-term imprisonment requires the convicted person to serve the sentence at a detention facility for a specified period.

Fixed-term imprisonment for a person convicted of a crime has a minimum duration of 03 months and a maximum duration of 20 years.

The time spent in temporary detention or custody is deducted from the prison sentence, with 01 day of temporary detention or custody being equivalent to 01 day of imprisonment.

Thus, when your husband is detained for 03 months in the district, the Court will deduct the time your husband has been temporarily detained according to regulations.

Regarding amnesty according to current regulations, there is no specified term for this; you may refer to clemency. To be specific:

Clemency is the special leniency of the State, decided by the President, releasing a prisoner before the end of their fixed-term or life imprisonment sentence on major national events, significant holidays, or in special cases (Clause 1, Article 3 of the Clemency Law 2018).

For conditions regarding clemency, you can refer here.

Respectfully!
