African Court Guide and Commission Jurisprudence

This guide is intended to assist researchers and practitioners alike by consolidating the key jurisprudence in respect of the provisions of the African Charter on Human and People’s Rights relevant to capital case litigation.  Although this guide is focused largely on cases relevant to the plight of prisoners and criminal defendants, it would be relevant for those involved in other categories of rights violations as well.  The hope is that users will find this an efficient and effective guide in providing insight and useful summaries of the key jurisprudence.
