Key legal question
Whether the extension of pre-trial detention for danger of reoffending was lawful and proportionate.
Extracted holding
The detention was lawful and proportionate because the appellant faced a very unfavorable reoffending prognosis and the feared offenses were serious.
Extracted reasoning
The court stressed the appellant's repeated recent offending, prior convictions, and admitted involvement in violent property crimes. Mild measures were not shown to be sufficient, and the protection of life, bodily integrity, liberty, and property justified detention.
