Detention of the applicant under the Prevention of Crime Act 1959 was unlawful because the alleged offences lacked the requisite nexus to organised violence under Article 149(1)(a) FC and the Magistrate failed to satisfy himself as to legal and procedural safeguards before making a 21‑day remand order; therefore the remand order was void and habeas corpus and declaratory relief were warranted.
