86In that regard, while a provisional arrest does indeed constitute a restriction of the right of the person concerned to freedom of movement, it must nevertheless, in a situation where the applicability of the ne bis in idem principle remains uncertain, be regarded as justified by the legitimate aim of preventing that person from evading punishment, an objective which, as the Court has held, falls within the context of the area of freedom, security and justice without internal frontiers, in which the free movement of persons is ensured, as provided for in Article 3(2) TEU (see, to that effect, judgments of 6 September 2016, Petruhhin, C‑182/15, EU:C:2016:630, paragraphs 36 and 37, and of 2 April 2020, Ruska Federacija, C‑897/19 PPU, EU:C:2020:262, paragraph 60).
