Questão jurídica principal
Whether § 77 Abs. 1 lit. c StPO/BL provided a sufficient legal basis for continued detention in a cannabis-related case.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The continuation-risk ground can cover serious drug offenses protecting public health, even though the wording mentions private legal interests.
Fundamentação extraída
The court interpreted the provision purposively and by its legislative history. The aim of the ground is to prevent serious offenses; the protection of public health under narcotics law is a sufficient interest. Federal law binding the court prevented a contrary policy critique of cannabis regulation from defeating detention.
