How have the courts considered the possibility of an applicant fleeing from custody?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from United States v. Singh, 2014 ONCA 559 (CanLII):
I have not overlooked the submission based on United States of America v. Cheema, 2007 BCCA 624, 255 B.C.A.C. 35, at para. 17, that “there is always, in these cases, some possibility of flight.” Prowse J.A. made that observation in the context of being satisfied that the applicant would surrender into custody.
