THE legal battle over the continued detention of businessmen Dominic Hadeed and his wife, Genevieve, has now moved to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London.

The State has formally filed its appeal against last week’s landmark Court of Appeal ruling that ordered the couple’s release from prison.

Notice of the appeal was published yesterday on the Privy Council’s website.
