Tanzanian judge earmarked for Pan African Court post

A TANZANIAN judge, Imani Aboud, has been proposed for the post of judge within the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights (AfCHPR).

A communiqué issued by the African Union (AU) and made available to the ‘Daily News’ yesterday, here, said the African Union Commission had presented its recommendations to the permanent missions of all member states, stating that three judges had finished their terms, while one ceased to exercise her functions as a judge.

Judges who have finished their second six-year term and are not seeking re-election are Judge Gerard Niyungeko from Burundi and Judge El Hadj Guisse from Senegal, while the Vice-President of the Court, Justice Ben Kioko has finished his first six year-term and is seeking re-election.

JusticeSolomy Bossa from Uganda resigned on February 2018 to take up other functions outside AfCHPR.

Judge Aboud (55) (pictured) is a High Court of Tanzania Judge, currently in-charge of Tanga Zone, with 290 people under her supervision, including judges, magistrates and other judicial officers. She handles civil, criminal as well as labour matters when required.

She holds a Master of Laws (LLM) in International Maritime Law from International Maritime Law Institute, Malta, majoring in Law of the Sea and Shipping Law.

She also holds a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) and a Diploma in Business Administration (Marketing) from the College of Business Education (CBE) in Dar es Salaam.

Her expertise, knowledge and professional skills include, but not limited to, member of the Board of Directors of the International Association of Women Judges, representing African region; monitor in the Monitoring Team assigned by the United Nations Mechanism for the International Criminal Tribunal (MICT), Arusha, Tanzania to monitor Rwandan genocide cases.

Judge Aboud has also been a member of the Special Committee under the Judicial Service Commission that was responsible to review and recommend on Judicial Service Systems in view of adopting best practices from other jurisdictions or countries.

From 2011 to date, Judge Aboud has been a facilitator in seminars and workshops on human rights, including women and children rights with emphasis on gender-based violence (GBV), including sextortion as well as applicability of the International Human Rights Instruments.

She is also a member of the Tanzania Judges Ethics Committee under the Judicial Service Commission.

The statement from the AU drew attention of the permanent missions on provisions of the Protocol that the Court should consist of 11 judges nationals of member states of the AU, elected in an individual capacity from among jurists of high moral and character and of recognised practical, judicial or academic competence and experience in the field of human and peoples’ rights.

According to the Protocol, no two judges should be nationals of the same state. Tanzania has no judge as of now in the AfPHPR. It had one - Justice Augustno Ramadhani who has retired.

Countries with judges in the Pan African Court are Algeria, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Malawi, Mozambique, Rwanda and Tunisia.

Sababu za kuachiwa Hamis Shaban Taletale maarufu kama Babu Tale mmoja wa wakurugenzi wa kampuni ya Tip Top Connection, aliyekuwa akisota mahabusu, akisubiri amri ya kupelekwa kifungoni gerezani, zimebainika. Babu Tale ambaye pia ni meneja wa mwanamuziki wa muziki wa kizazi kipya Naseeb Abdul, ‘Diamond Platnumz’, aliachiwa kwa muda na Jaji Edson Mkasimongwa, kwa kile kilichoelezwa kuwa amri ya kumkamata yeye na ndugu yake Idd Shaban Taletale ilitolewa kimakosa. Kwa mujibu wa chanzo chetu kutoka mahakamani hapo, makosa yaliyobainika katika amri hiyo ni kwamba aliyeitoa, Naibu Msajili wa Mahakama Kuu, Dar es Salaam, Wilbard Mashauri hakuwa na mamlaka ya kutoa amri hiyo na kwamba ilikuwa haieleweki. Hivyo Jaji Mkasimongwa alimwachia jana kwa muda lakini akamtaka afike mahakamani saa 6:00 mchana, leo Mei 25, 2018. Babu Tale alitiwa mbaroni Jumanne Mei 22, 2010, kwa amri ya mahakama hiyo iliyotolewa na Naibu Msajili Mashauri Februari 16 na hati ya kuwakamata iliyotolewa
