Why Daedalus and icarus prisoned by the king?

Daedalus and Icarus were not imprisoned by the king. They were imprisoned in the Labyrinth, which was a maze-like structure designed by Daedalus for King Minos of Crete. Daedalus and Icarus were imprisoned in the Labyrinth because King Minos feared that Daedalus would reveal the secrets of the Labyrinth to enemies.
