If
an
interpretation
of
Article
5
§
1
(
e
)
of
the
Convention
were
accepted
that
supported
the
German
model
of
preventive
detention
as
detention
of
a
person
of
“
unsound
mind
”
independent
from
the
criminal
law
system
,
this
would
open
the
door
to
preventive
detention
without
a
prior
offence
.
The
Government
’s
reasoning
perceives
the
connection
between
the
prior
offence
and
the
detention
as
rather
loose
,
because
otherwise
the
detention
would
have
been
subsumed
as
one
under
Article
5
§
1
(
a
)
.
This
opens
up
a
wide
door
to
detaining
someone
because
of
nothing
more
than
a
prediction
of
dangerousness
.
