prohibition


A person, while being held for trial, shall not be subjected to punishment or
penalty other than arrest or confinement on the charges pending against him nor shall the
arrest or confinement imposed on him be any more rigorous than the circumstances required
to ensure his presence, but he may be subjected to minor punishment during that period
for infractions of discipline and may be required to perform such labor as may be
necessary for the policing and sanitation of his living quarters and mess facilities and
the immediately adjacent area.
