Central African Republic: Special Criminal Court hands down first judgment
On October 31, the Bangui-based Special Criminal Court issued its first verdict. It found three former members of a Central African armed group guilty of crimes against humanity and war crimes committed in 2019. One of the convicts received a life sentence, while the other two got 20 years in prison.
Shan Patel@Luigiprosperi any chance you have managed to obtain a copy of the judgment? No luck so far on my side to locate it on the website or anywhere else. 🤷🏽♂️
@ShanPatel no, I don’t think it’s available. Maybe they’ve only read the summary? I’m sorry Shan.
@Luigiprosperi No worries, my friend. Guess we’ll all have to be patient 😬
