37 j) In the cases of several of the alleged victims (infra para. 152(a) and 152(b)), due process guarantees before trial, during trial, and on appeal were not respected by reason of various factors such as unjustified delay of the proceedings and the unavailability of legal aid, experts and other kinds of specialized assistance. k) The Constitution of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago does not stipulate trial within a reasonable time as part of due process guarantees. 97 l) The victims in thirty cases 98 were detained by the authorities of Trinidad and Tobago for periods lasting from a minimum of four years (Peter Benjamin) up to a maximum period of eleven years and nine months (Wayne Matthews) from the time of their arrest to the resolution of their final appeal (supra para. 60 and infra para. 152(a)). m) All of the victims' pre and post trial detention took place in grossly overpopulated and unhygienic conditions. As to pre-trial detention conditions, their cells, referred to as "F2" cells, lack sufficient ventilation and natural light. Along with the showers used by the victims, they are located in close proximity to the execution chamber (gallows). The prisoners do not have adequate nutrition, medical services or recreation, which only exacerbates the state of mental anguish in which they live (supra paras. 76(b) and 77(c)). n) Only twenty-one of the alleged victims in this case 99 have maintained that they were imprisoned under conditions of overcrowding, 97 Ibid., Section 4, supra note 94 and Expert Witness Testimony of Desmond Allum, supra para. 77(a).
