Secretary of State for the Home Department v JJ and others [2007] UKHL 45
“A non-derogating control order, made by the Secretary of State under s 2 of the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005, which imposed an 18 hour curfew of the controlled person and closely restricted his social contacts constituted a deprivation of liberty under art 5 of the European Convention on Human Rights; since the Secretary of State had no power under the 2005 Act to make such an order, the proper course was that it should be quashed.”
