This is standard procedure. The alleged criminal is remanded typically up to 4 weeks at a time, and optionally isolated. This can go on for a bit if the alleged criminal is expected to flee, destroy evidence and that type of thing.

The headline and the article fail to stress why he's being imprisoned. It's unrelated to Pirate Bay, and has due to extensive intrusion into Danish government and police databases. Don't mistake this "cracker" type for some kind of brave fighter against restrictive copyright regime.

According to the article he's in solitary confinement.. "among violent criminals".
