Court held that the detention order was lawful and procedurally compliant: the petitioner’s role as intermediary within a distribution network satisfied the Article 149/preamble requirement; the investigating officer submitted a complete report and any delay (21 days) was reasonable under 'all convenient speed'; the Deputy Minister validly exercised authority (appointment and oath preceded the back‑dated gazette); recorded statements and Advisory Board proceedings were not fatally defective; omission of the MDMA acronym was a non‑material clerical error. Consequently the writ was refused.
