1. This matter arises in extradition, the Government of Singapore having sought the applicant’s surrender to face criminal charges in that jurisdiction. On 26 July 2005, at the end of a committal hearing, a magistrate, sitting at Eastern Magistracy, committed the applicant into custody to await a decision by the Chief Executive whether to order his surrender. The applicant now applies for a writ of habeas corpus on the basis that his detention pursuant to the warrant of committal is unlawful.
