On the Miraya Breakfast Show, guest Anees Ahmed, Chief of Rule of Law at UNMISS, spoke about the upcoming general court martial in Torit, Eastern Equatoria, which will run from 9 to 20 March. He said the proceedings are meant to strengthen accountability and discipline within the security forces by handling serious crimes, including sexual and gender based offences, while also showing that members of the armed forces are subject to both military and criminal law. He added that the process is part of wider efforts to support justice, protect victims and witnesses, and build public confidence in the rule of law.
