Decisione estratta
The refusal was not arbitrary because a concrete flight risk still existed and could increase as trial approached.
Motivazione estratta
The appellant’s family and economic situation in Switzerland was stable, but the family could relocate abroad with relative ease, especially given the spouse’s Spanish nationality and the young child. The expected severe sentence also strengthened the incentive to flee.
