The court granted the prosecution's request for pre-trial detention, reversing the lower court's decision that had denied it. The prosecution argued the defendant posed a flight risk and danger to the public, while the lower court initially found no sufficient grounds for detention. The appellate court determined that the circumstances warranted immediate restriction of liberty to ensure the integrity of the proceedings.
