77. 工作组必须再次强调，在移民背景下剥夺自由必须是最后手段，必须寻求拘留的替代办法，以满足相称性要求。20 此外，正如人权事务委员会在关于人身自由和安全的第 35 号一般性意见(2014 年)第 18 段中指出的那样：非法进入缔约国领土的寻求庇护者可能会被拘留一段短暂的初始时间，以便记录他们的入境，记录他们的诉求，并在有疑问时确定他们的身份。在他们的诉求得到解决的情况下，如果没有具体针对个人的具体理由，如潜逃的个别可能性、危害他人罪的危险或危害国家安全行为的风险，进一步拘留他们将是任意的。
77. The Working Group must once again underscore that deprivation of liberty in the immigration context must be a measure of last resort and that alternatives to detention must be sought in order to meet the requirement of proportionality.20 Moreover, as the Human Rights Committee has argued in paragraph 18 of its general comment No. 35 (2014) on liberty and security of person: Asylum seekers who unlawfully enter a State party’s territory may be detained for a brief initial period in order to document their entry, record their claims and determine their identity if it is in doubt. To detain them further while their claims are being resolved would be arbitrary in the absence of particular reasons specific to the individual, such as an individualized likelihood of absconding, a danger of crimes against others or a risk of acts against national security.
