Title: Fight against anti-values in the judicial system in the Democratic Republic of Congo
Introduction :
The fight against anti-values in the judicial system is a major concern in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). President Félix Tshisekedi recently highlighted the need to fight against these practices in order to restore state authority and guarantee respect for the rule of law. In this article, we will examine the measures taken by the government to fight anti-values and improve the functioning of justice in the DRC.
I. Continuing training for magistrates
To guarantee the integrity and morality of magistrates, President Tshisekedi recommended the establishment of continuing training. It is essential that men and women of the law be equipped with unshakable moral values and strong intellectual capacity. This training will strengthen the skills of magistrates and raise their awareness of the ethical issues of their profession.
II. Strengthening disciplinary chambers
President Tshisekedi insisted on the importance of the effective functioning of the disciplinary chambers within the Superior Council of the Judiciary. These chambers have the role of sanctioning the deviant behavior of magistrates and guaranteeing respect for the ethical values of the profession. The government was responsible for putting in place the necessary means to ensure the proper functioning of these chambers.
III. The appointment of qualified magistrates throughout the country
In order to strengthen the authority of the State and ensure fair justice throughout the Congolese territory, the government undertakes to appoint a sufficient number of magistrates in each jurisdiction. This measure will make it possible to fill the shortage of judges in certain regions and reduce disparities in terms of access to justice.
IV. A fight against the exploitation of justice
President Tshisekedi also stressed the need to prevent any exploitation of justice for political purposes. He affirmed his desire to guarantee the independence of justice and to allow judicial institutions to exercise their power without external pressure. This measure aims to strengthen citizens’ confidence in the judicial system and guarantee fair treatment for all.
Conclusion :
The fight against anti-values in the judicial system in the Democratic Republic of Congo is a priority for President Félix Tshisekedi. Through measures such as the continuing training of magistrates, the strengthening of disciplinary chambers and the appointment of qualified magistrates, the Congolese government is committed to restoring the authority of the State and guaranteeing respect for the State of right. These actions will strengthen citizens’ confidence in the judicial system and promote fair justice for all.
