Key legal question
Whether the extended contact bans as substitute measures were proportionate
Extracted holding
The extension was proportionate because the measures were significantly less burdensome than detention and, in total, did not exceed what could still be justified by the expected custodial sentence.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that substitute measures must also satisfy proportionality, but here the defendant had already spent more than three months in detention and the remaining restrictions were milder than detention. Their cumulative burden remained below what a lawful detention of up to eight months would have entailed.
