Is there a violation of the accused’s Charter right to be detained by the police?

The accused was detained by the police. The detention was based upon the officer’s lawful authority to arrest the accused and was, therefore, not arbitrary. Had I found the arrest unlawful, given my view of the facts there would not necessarily have been a finding that the detention was arbitrary as per R v. Brown, supra. I find that there was not a violation of the accused’s section 9 Charter right.
