Preventive detention based on past crime over ten years old is inadmissible due to lack of current flight risk.

The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa dismissed the request for preventive detention against the accused, ruling that the risk of flight cannot be established by a conviction from over a decade ago. The prosecution argued the defendant's past criminal record indicated a danger of absconding, but the court found this evidence insufficient to prove current flight risk. Consequently, the preventive measure was rejected because the temporal gap between the past crime and the present proceedings negated the necessity of coercive detention.
