According to the law (Article 194 of the Code of Criminal Procedure), the investigating judge has the right to prohibit a suspect from communicating with any person. However, firstly, this must be done by the investigating judge (and not by any other entity), and secondly, such a prohibition should not apply to any persons in general, but to specifically identified persons.
