-28- 104. The reasoning is therefore an important component of the judgment as highlighted in Article 569 (1) of the Burkinabe Criminal Procedure Code which states that "Judgments of the lower Courts as well as the rulings and judgments of the Courts of last resort shall be declared null and void if they do not provide the reasons or if such reasons are insufficient or contradictory and do not enable the Cour [de cassation] to consider and to determine whether its operative provisions comply with the law''. 105. The reasoning being the basis for the impugned judgment enables the Appellant to prepare his grounds of appeal. The said reasons need not be known to the Appellant at the time of lodging the notice of appeal within five clear days of the pronouncement of the impunged judgement: they become or are necessary for the Appellant's brief for submission within two months, as from the date on which the notice is made. 106. It is therefore not necessary, in the Court's view, for the Applicant to be availed of the impugned judgement at the time of the notice of appeal. Besides, the Court notes that it is possible for the Appellant, while in detention to lodge his notice of appeal by making his intention known through the submission of a simple letter to the Senior Superintendent of the Prison (Criminal Procedure Code of 1968, Article 584). 107. The Court concludes that in the instant case, the time limit of five (5) days for the Applicant to lodge his notice of appeal, though short, was not an obstacle for him to appeal. The Court therefore finds that the appeal at the Cour de Cassation is a remedy available to the Applicant.
