Everyone and anyone who creates content is at risk. FILE PHOTO | NMG
Ever since former Chief Justice Willy Mutunga created the Judicial Review division of the High Court, it has breathed life into the Constitutional provision on the right to a fair trial. The Constitution in Article 25 lists the right to a fair trial as among rights that cannot be limited or derogated at any time.
It is listed alongside freedom from torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment; freedom from slavery or servitude; and the right to an order of habeas corpus, shedding light into its standing in elevating and protecting human rights in Kenya.
