Questão jurídica principal
Whether the refusal of release on bail violated cantonal law and Article 5 § 3 ECHR.
Decisão extraída
The proposed CHF 10,000 guarantee by the former employer was not sufficient to neutralize the flight risk.
Fundamentação extraída
Bail must be assessed in light of the accused's means, his links to the surety, and whether the forfeiture threat will effectively prevent flight. Here, the employer was not a close relation and the amount was low in view of the company's financial capacity and the seriousness of the charges.
