Kabarole Chair Instructs Sub Counties To Budget For Local Courts
The district chairman Kabarole Mr.Rwabuhinga Richard has ordered
the sub county local governments to prioritize local courts and incorporate
their activities in their budgets for justice to prevail.
He explains that when the sub county chiefs and LC3 chairpersons
include in their budget the local courts, it will enable them do their work
effectively since they will be facilitated.
The chairman was speaking at the closer of the one week training
for the sub county local courts executives at the district board room Kitumba
on Friday.
Mr.Rwabuhinga, who advised the participants to maintain a high
moral of integrity in ensuring judgment, is optimistic that the skills and
knowledge acquired from the training their communication attitude in passing
judgment.
The chairman appealed to the International Law Institute the
organizers of the training through the Ministry of Local government to
translate the justice and law books given to these local council courts
executives and community members into local languages for easy understanding of
the information.
David Kisembo Ssalongo of South Division Fort Portal municipality
asked the district to intervene and find means of talking to the police from
being interfering with the local council courts settling cases illegally if
justice is to prevail.
But Mr.Kyalimpa Paul chairperson Ruteete sub county local courts
observed that their work was hampered by the LC3 chairpersons who have conflict
of interest in some cases thus favoring some suspects.
The sub county local courts are meant to handle simple cases after
being referred from the LC1&11 to over flooding magistrate courts with
cases.
End.
