Fahlman, 42, was arrested last November.
Fahlman filed the appeal requesting a conditional release from police custody after initially being denied bail in November of 2025, when his initial charges were pending. The province’s highest court denied that request on Thursday, according to court documents.
The appeal was handled by Saskatchewan Justice Robert W. Leurer. The judge’s justification for the denial cannot be disclosed, due to a general publication ban on evidence presented during bail proceedings in the province.

His preliminary hearing is set to begin in October.
