"I would expect, with the nature of the crime I was accused of, to have been placed under specific instructions," he added.

"But there were no restrictions at all."

That's the thing though, isn't it. These people are pre-charge, as in the police suspect them but they haven't been charged with anything as of yet. If they had then it'd be up the court to either grant bail or not.

I just don't see much of a solution to this, investigation takes time and the police are rightfully limited in how long they can hold someone. At best I suppose you could for some sort of new pre-charge bail? it seems to me like that's legally iffy though, if someone hasn't been formally charged of a crime it's probably not right to impose bail-like restrictions on them.
