Key legal question
Whether the investigating judge had to be recused for alleged bias after carrying out rapid investigative measures following remittal.
Extracted holding
No recusal was warranted; prompt action after remittal, including simultaneous summons and search, did not objectively show prejudice or unlawful obstruction of defense rights.
Extracted reasoning
A judge is not biased merely because he corrects or continues proceedings after remittal, unless there are particularly serious or repeated breaches or indications of personal prejudice. The measures taken were explained by the need to preserve evidence and did not aim to worsen the appellants' legal position.
