Text
The appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal by the respondent and defense counsel are examined.
Where an applicant for detention has filed an appeal only against the part concerning custody cases in the appellate judgment, the appellate court's conviction of the accused case shall not be deemed the grounds for appeal for the custody case on the grounds that the rules of evidence have been violated.
In light of the records, the court below's finding that there is a risk of re-offending by the requester for re-offending based on the evidence is acceptable, and there is no error of law by misunderstanding legal principles or rules of evidence as pointed out.
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
