Kampala-The Prosecutors from the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) will all meet in Kampala next week for their three day symposium. The event scheduled to be held from 25th May to 28th May will be held under a theme “Enhancing Professionalism for Responsive Prosecution Services.”
During a media engagement held on Friday in Kampala, DPP Mr. Lino Anguzu revealed that he has already written to the Chief Justice, Dr. Flavian Zeija to have all matters coming up on these three days to be adjourned to new dates.
“In today’s increasingly complex Criminal landscape, perpetrators continue to exploit legislative and systematic gaps, thereby hightening the vulnerability of victims and threatening public safety, security and economic development. Addressing these challenges requires deliberate collaboration among actors in the justice system.” Remarked Anguzu
He added that this Symposium is crucial because it promotes team work, collaboration and communication among the criminal justice system.
“The Symposium will be delivered through expert presentations, structured discussions and peer learning sessions facilitated by both internal and external resource persons. This year’s lecture is unique because it will include facilitators from Russian Federation who will be sharing their prosecutorial experiences with us.”
After the Symposium, the ODPP will hold the 8th Joan Kagezi Memorial Lecture on the 29th May at Speaker Resort Munyonyo.
