The High Court has denied bail to Oliver Barker Vormawor, a lead convener of the Democracy Hub protest.
Despite the ruling, the court directed the Circuit Court to commence prosecution within 72 hours.
If the prosecution fails to do so, the court indicated that bail may be reconsidered.
The court indicated that Barker Vormawor's bail denial stems from the fact that he was already out on bail for treason felony charges at the time of his alleged involvement in offences during the Democracy Hub protest.
