Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The Association for Media Development in South Sudan (AMDISS) on Tuesday concluded a two-day workshop in Juba attended by 19 judges to review, harmonize and interpret media laws in relation to other laws.<\/p>\n

Michael Duku, the executive director of AMDISS, told Radio Tamazuj Wednesday that the workshop aimed at creating a better understanding of the media laws because some sections conflict with other South Sudanese laws.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe two-day workshop with the judges ran from 28 to29 March and ended yesterday (Tuesday). It is about enhancing a deeper understanding of the media laws in South Sudan,\u201d Duku said. \u201cAMDISS is a media advocacy and training organization and after the enactment of the media laws and into the implementation phase, we realized that a number of issues or challenges have been encountered.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe implementation of the laws is not the responsibility of one entity and requires stakeholder participation. So we identified the judiciary as one of the key stakeholders that should look deeper into the (media) laws because there are sections which conflict with other laws,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Duku said the workshop with the judiciary officials aimed at a proper understanding and interpretation of the laws.<\/p>\n

Asked for comment, the judges said they are not allowed to speak to the media.<\/p>\n
