and 3 others – see appended list
communicated on 23 June 2021 and 28 September 2021

ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS
1. Was the length of the applicants’ detention in breach of the “reasonable time” requirement of Article 5 § 3 of the Convention? In particular, in light of the most recent decisions of 24 July 2020 and 11 August 2020, did the domestic courts provide relevant and sufficient reasons justifying the applicants’ continued detention and did the competent authorities display special diligence in the conduct of the criminal proceedings against the applicants (see Buzadji v. the Republic of Moldova [GC], no. 23755/07, §§ 84-91, 5 July 2016; Petrov v. Slovakia, no. 64195/10, § 55, 2 December 2014; and Kuc v. Slovakia, no. 37498/14, §§ 50-60, 25 July 2017)?
2. Did the length of the proceedings before the Constitutional Court no. II. ÚS 129/2021, in which the applicants sought to challenge the lawfulness of their detention, comply with the “speed” requirement of Article 5 § 4 of the Convention (see Žúbor v. Slovakia, no. 7711/06, §§ 89‑90, 6 December 2011)?
