Fifteen judicial magistrates along with 10 prosecutors participated in a tree-day interactive training workshop on ‘Human Rights Safeguards in the Administration of Justice in Sindh’.
The Sindh Judicial Academy (SJA), in collaboration with the EU-funded Huqooq-e-Pakistan (HeP) project, organised the training. The training aimed at a province-wide intervention by building the capacity of 300 trial court judges and 360 public prosecutors from all districts of Sindh through a total of 22 pieces of training that will run at the SJA through the year.
Senior Sindh High Court lawyers, prominent experts in criminal justice and experts from the HeP and the SJA will impart training whose objective is to enhance the capacity of judges and prosecutors in applying human rights standards to the administration of justice and incorporating the same in judgment- writing.
