- HCAL59/2026
Detention was lawful and not rendered unreasonable: the Director intended and acted to effect removal with reasonable diligence; significant part of delay was caused by the applicant's own unreasonable conduct (late filing, insisting on an oral hearing contrary to s.37ZT(2)); and risk of absconding/re‑offending given his conviction history and conduct justified continued detention; accordingly habeas corpus application dismissed.
