Key legal question
Whether the continued pretrial detention was justified by a concrete risk of flight under Art. 221 CPP.
Extracted holding
Yes. The personal ties to Switzerland did not outweigh the foreign nationality, weak local attachments, criminal exposure, and the incentive to evade a serious sentence.
Extracted reasoning
Flight risk is assessed from the totality of circumstances. The court found the appellant's family ties insufficient, especially given his continued offending despite his wife's pregnancy and a prior suspended sentence.
