Completely non landy related query here.

I'm a security guard in a hostel/bar in Glasgow city centre, we do get our fair share of trouble and regrettably most of the trouble makers make it away before the police arrive.

What would the legality of detaining an offender after a fight/robbery using restraints such as handcuffs or the plastic disposable cuffs?

Any input would be appreciated.

We were allowed to detain people at Express but we wernt actually allowed to cuff them iirc. Detaining mormally consisted of locking them in the staff room :)

Not Recoomended and I beleive you are liable for false inprisonment.

I woudl have to say that 'Dahn Sarf' of the border that would probably be a no-no. In fact if you tried using the power of the mind to counter act their negative waves, it would probably more in keeping with the way that the English Police are allowed to deal with things. That is after you have handed them a flower and invited them to sit and chant 'ohmmmmmm' for half an hour.
Seeing as you are North of the Border, where Policing seems to be done in a far more 'logical' way, I couldn't give you an answer as Scottish Law is somewhat different.
If there are any Scots Bobbies on the forum perhaps they should be able to give a better and more sensible answer!

Wouldn't fastening them upside down from the nearest lamp-post be preferable, with a big sign saying "I Am A Thief' be preferable?
