Kelly Pflug-Back, shown at a protest on June 21, faces six counts of mischief over $5,000. (Pras Rajagopalan/CBC)Kelly Pflug-Back, the woman who is facing several charges relating to the vandalism during the G20 summit protests, will spend at least another week behind bars.
Pflug-Back, 21, appeared tired and dishevelled when she walked into the court on Thursday. She was clad in the same grey sweater and denim skirt that she wore when she was taken into custody on Wednesday.
The Crown asked that the case be put on hold and Pflug-Black be returned to court on Thursday afternoon, which would give her lawyer time to attend.
She was later ordered remanded in custody and her next appearance was set for July 27.
At a news conference on Wednesday, Det.-Sgt. Gary Giroux singled out Pflug-Back as someone who he alleged "was responsible for a tremendous amount of damage in the downtown core."
Police say she was involved in an attack on a police cruiser on June 26, as well as attacks on several retail businesses.
She surrendered to police in Peterborough, Ont., shortly after they issued a warrant for her arrest.
Pflug-Back, an anti-poverty activist based in Guelph, Ont., has been charged with six counts of mischief over $5,000.
