Thanks Carl. True, but it's not clear to me that they will be charged. It sounds more like they are victims - I thought about "preventiva" but wasn't convinced by that either (especially given their alleged treatment).

prisión preventiva
Actually, perhaps prisión preventiva lasts beyond the actual pressing of charges, so it need not be synonymous, but close enough.

detención (sin más)
Yo no diría detención preventiva (no previene nada, es sólo la detención por la policía hasta la puesta a disposición judicial) o, si acaso, detención policial.
