Section 37(2) of the Corrections Act 2004 authorises detention in any prison notwithstanding a committal order naming a specific prison, and the affidavit evidence that the applicant is classified BB and that Auckland Prison holds BB and CB prisoners justified his detention; therefore the habeas corpus application must be dismissed.
