[GALLUS]

name

In France, just a bit different
- you may refuse to talk untill they torture you severely

Jokes apart
- disclosure of name, nationality, age and address is compulsory
- the rest is not, you may then ask to be presented to the juge d'instruction (in a criminal case)
- detention without charges is 48 hours, which you will get since you refused to answer the police, and it can be extended to 4 days in total in case of terror and narcotics. Enjoy. But 48 hours repeating only names, age and address, is still fun.
- but because there is a "speed justice" trail (for flagrants delits, if you are caught in the act) for misdeameanors , then you will not meet any judge and be draged straight to court. Oups. There, the trial court judge will make the questions, better answer.
- foreigners that refuse to collaborate may be forcibly deported, even EU citizen or even wrongly charged for rebellion to police or contempt to magistarte or court. Be carefull.

if you do not know, keep quiet
