Brittney Griner has been detained in Russia for over 130 days after customs officials allegedly detected cannabis oil in her luggage at an airport near Moscow on February 17.
After briefly appearing in court on Monday at a preliminary hearing, a judge ordered Griner to be detained for the length of her trial, per NPR.
The preliminary hearing was closed to the public, but journalists saw Griner in the courthouse’s hallway. In photos published by other outlets, she was handcuffed, with the cuffs also attached to an officer using another set.
