My problem here was that I wanted to call a view, which depended on a
variable. As the redirect was clearing the variable, the display of
the view failed. I solved by (i) calling the view function [including
the $id of the record I wanted to view] and (ii) rendering the view.
By calling the function all variables needed by the view are prepared
by the the view function in the controller and rendering the view
displays it as expected. For full details see here:
