Section 82.2 — Immigration and Refugee Protection Act: Arrest and detention — breach of conditions
Text of the provision Official document
A peace officer may arrest and detain a person released under section 82 or 82.1 if the officer has reasonable grounds to believe that the person has contravened or is about to contravene any condition applicable to their release. The peace officer shall bring the person before a judge within 48 hours after the detention begins. If the judge finds that the person has contravened or was about to contravene any condition applicable to their release, the judge shall order the person’s detention to be continued if the judge is satisfied that the person’s release under conditions would be injurious to national security or endanger the safety of any person or that they would be unlikely to appear at a proceeding or for removal if they were released under conditions; confirm the release order; or vary the conditions applicable to their release. For the purpose of calculating the six-month period referred to in subsection 82(2), (3) or (4), the conclusion of the preceding review is deemed to have taken place on the day on which the decision under subsection (3) is made.
