Question juridique clé
Whether the continued pretrial detention violated proportionality and personal liberty.
Solution extraite
The detention remained justified because the charges were serious, the flight risk persisted, and the duration had not yet become disproportionate compared with the likely sentence.
Motifs extraits
Only proportionality was reviewable; the detention had lasted over seventeen months, but the expected custodial sentence for the alleged serious narcotics offenses would exceed that period and the file showed no unjustified procedural delay.
