Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the continued preventive detention violated the principle of speediness because the trial was scheduled more than eight months after committal.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The delay did not amount to a violation in the specific circumstances; the detention could still be maintained.
Extrahierte Begründung
A delay of more than eight months is generally problematic, but here the appellant had not objected when the trial date was announced, waited more than two months to complain, and the case was serious with several co-accused. The remaining delay until trial was still acceptable.
