清朝特别是晚清期间有一种奇特的现象:一些人被差役拘传后即下落不明,监狱中查无此人,有时甚至连主管官也不清楚这些人的去向。这些人究竟被羁于何处?原来.他们多被押入“班馆”——拘留所了。 During the Qing dynasty, especially during the late Qing period, there was a peculiar phenomenon: some people were arrested when they were detained by police officers, and there was no such person in the prisons. Sometimes even the supervisor did not know the whereabouts of these people. Where were these people being detained? Originally, most of them were charged to the “class hall” - the detention center.
