Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the refusal to authorize family visits to a pretrial detainee was lawful despite rights under the Constitution and ECHR.
Decisione estratta
The refusal was lawful because the risk of collusion was sufficiently concrete and justified restricting visits for the time being.
Motivazione estratta
Family visits are protected by personal liberty and private/family life, but may be restricted in pretrial detention. Here the applicant's shifting and implausible statements suggested he was protecting accomplices and might warn them if allowed contact with the outside world.
