F1(za)

the defendant—

(i)

is a child or young person, or

(ii)

has been convicted in the proceedings of an offence;

(a)

it appears to the court that, having been previously granted bail in criminal proceedings, he has failed to surrender to custody in accordance with his obligations under the grant of bail; and

(b)

the court believes, in view of that failure, that the defendant, if released on bail (whether subject to conditions or not) would fail to surrender to custody.
