Courts Commit and Doctors Detain!
detain him against his wish since he is dangerous to himself! scantily clad in this freezing winter, he is in immediate danger of hypothermia. as his behaviour suggests, he is not competent, so he can not refuse treatment. so , doctor can use therapeutic previlege,and admitt him against his wishes!
