Question juridique clé
Whether the appellate president could order security detention after announcing the conviction verdict
Solution extraite
Yes. The appellate direction may still order security detention during the pending appeal, even after the verdict, if the procedural safeguards are respected.
Motifs extraits
The CPP allows the appellate direction to intervene under arts. 231-233 CPP until the appellate judgment is pronounced. A separate, promptly reasoned detention decision is required; the brief gap after the verdict did not violate federal law.
