News of the IAJ

At the recent IAJ Meeting in Cape Town, President Sessa gave the assembly an overview of the situation of judges in Afghanistan stressing that this issue is far from solved and that male colleagues in Afghanistan are endangered as female colleagues.

Yesterday, on demand of President Sessa, an appeal was addressed to all the IAJ members inviting them and those who have means, to contact national and international humanitarian organizations and to find ways to obtain first of all visas for the Afghan colleagues.
