Unconstitutional rules at the Specialist Chambers
Why the rules on procedure and evidence were returned for revision.
Given the magnitude of interference that secret surveillance has on the right to privacy, the Court has endorsed the view of the European Convention of Human Rights.
The Court stipulated that this Rule is not formulated with the requisite degree of precision.
The Court notes that if such consent were to be withheld then, applying the provision as it stands would mean that the detained person ‘shall not be released.’
