Key legal question
Whether continued detention after a first-instance sentence remained proportionate while appeal proceedings were pending
Extracted holding
The chamber had to assess the impact of the fixed first-instance sentence, including the conditional-release question, and could not rely only on pretrial risks without a fresh, reasoned evaluation.
Extracted reasoning
Once the sentence is fixed and cannot be aggravated, the detainee’s situation changes materially. Where detention already reaches roughly two thirds of the imposed sentence, the authority must at least briefly consider conditional release under criminal law and coordinate this with detention rules. The impugned order was too summary.
