-
In "Salumu so Andrew Kamande vs Republic (Criminal Appeal No 513 of 2020)", Salumu Kamande's conviction for unlawful possession of elephant tusks was overturned by the Court of Appeal. The Court found that the District Court, where Kamande was initially tried and convicted, lacked jurisdiction over the matter. The appropriate jurisdiction for economic crimes involving government trophies is the Economic Crimes Division of the High Court. The Appeal Court nullified the lower courts' proceedings, quashed the convictions and judgments, and set aside the sentences due to this jurisdictional error.
