Judgment No CCZ 1/2015 8 Const. Application No SC 54/11 The delay in prosecuting the matter was partly the fault of the applicant. He also did not assert his constitutional right to a speedy trial. Although Mr Bherebhende, for the applicant, submitted that the applicant would be prejudiced by the delay in prosecuting this matter, in my view, he did not show that his rights under s 18 of the old Constitution have been violated. Accordingly the application must fail. It is hereby dismissed with no order as to costs.
