Episode 3153
Published 4 months, 1 week ago
Description
A mobile court deployed in Bunj, Maban County has delivered verdicts on 28 serious criminal cases, including murder and sexual and gender-based violence. The court convicted 23 people, acquitted 12 and ordered the release of 22 who were wrongfully detained or had already served their sentences. With Upper Nile lacking a high court judge since 2021, we speak to Judge Mojahed Akol on what these outcomes mean for access to justice.
