R v SSHD ex p Faulkner [2005] EWHC Admin 2567
The Administrative Court held that the SSHD’s notification of the statutory basis for detention, without further reason being given, was insufficient either to satisfy the rule in Christie v Leachinsky or Article 5 ECHR and thus held the Claimant’s detention to have been unlawful.
