Application for permanent stay refused: although substantial delay occurred, the Applicant contributed materially to delay and the prosecution's conduct (including joining co-defendants and evidence-gathering abroad) was justifiable; no evidence of such serious prejudice from delay, publicity or health that a fair trial is impossible; the court's discretion is not engaged to stay in this case.
