That seems like an oxymoron. Isn't it considered detaining someone as soon as a cop goes up to someone and asks questions like "can I see your press pass?"?

Fair enough, the word is ambiguous (it can either mean “keep under restraint or custody” or “delay”). Checking someone’s ID should be the second, not the first.
