illegal detention?

good pm atty...the husband of our neighbor is now in prison here in QC..because of theft allegation... the said item is outside the property at nakita ng asawa ng kapitbahay namin sa may basurahan at sinilip nya.bigla daw lumapit yung driver, guards, at trabahador ng junk shop at ginulpi sya..pinahuli sya sa pulis at pinakulong..yung kapitbahay namin is pumunta sa may ari ng junk shop at tinanong yung may ari kung pwede areglohin nalng pero ang isinagot is " wala naman sakin yun kasi alam ko wala kayo ibabayad, drayber ko lang naman ang matigas"..sa presinto naman is kinukulit sya ng imbestigador na magbayad ng 10k at kung hindi daw is dadalhin sya sa city jail..tama po ba ang ginagawa ng mga pulis?at dapat po ba sya palayain after 10 days reglementary period if ung complainant is sumablay na magsampa ng kaso?..salamat po,

he should undergo inquest and be charged within 24-36 hours
