Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the transfer to security detention had a sufficient formal statutory basis
Decisione estratta
Yes. Sections 20, 23(1) and 24 of the Zurich enforcement statute provided a formal legal basis, also in this transfer situation from a clinic to a prison while a new placement was being sought.
Motivazione estratta
The Court held that the provisions were designed for cases where immediate execution of a custodial measure is required because of flight risk or danger to the public. Their wording and purpose also cover a person transferred from a clinic to security detention while the authority clarifies the next enforcement step and searches for another institution.
