Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The Republic of Angola could become one of the first Member States of the African Union (AU) to ratify the Amendments to the Protocol Relating to the Statute of the African Court of Justice and Human Rights.<\/b><\/p>\n

The specialized commissions of the National Assembly (AN) approved this Tuesday, in general terms, the joint opinion report and the draft Resolution of this Protocol, which will be voted in the Plenary on the 27th of this month.<\/p>\n

The Protocol on Amendments to the Protocol on the Statute of the African Court of Justice and Human Rights was adopted by the 20th Session of the Assembly of the African Union, held on 27 June 2014, in the city of Malabo (Equatorial Guinea).<\/p>\n

It is part of the objectives and principles set out in the Constitutive Act of the African Union, adopted in the city of Lome\u0301, Togo, on July 11, 2000, among which the commitment to conflict resolution through peaceful means.<\/p>\n

So far, no country has ratified it, and it is expected that Angola will be the first Member State of the AU to ratify it, announcing its participation in the bodies of the African Union and in particular in the process of establishing this Court.<\/p>\n

The African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights, as well as other instruments relating to Human Rights, contribute to the commitment to promoting peace, security and stability on the African Continent and to the protection of Human and Peoples’ Rights, which, with this framework, this Protocol was adopted.<\/p>\n

According to the justification report, the Republic of Angola, by approving and ratifying this legal instrument “will have the advantages of a better organization of the Court for the promotion of peace, good governance, respect for human rights and democratic principles”.<\/p>\n

The Protocol aims to adopt a better organization of the Court, with an adequate jurisdiction, to broadly define the International Criminal Law Section of the Court, including its international criminal jurisdiction in crimes of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, unconstitutional government, piracy, terrorism, corruption, money laundering, among others.<\/p>\n

It is structured in a preambular part and a dispositive part, containing 3 (three) chapters and 12 (twelve) articles and an annex related to the Statute of the African Court of Justice, Human and Peoples’ Rights.<\/p>\n
