Jibu Amiri and Another versus The Republic

Jibu Amiri and Another versus The Republic; Criminal Application No 7 of 2011: Court of Appeal of Tanzania at Dar es Salaam (Unreported).

• Court of Appeal Rules

• Review – Application to review in the Court of Appeal of Tanzania- grounds.

Held:-

The court will not readily extend the list of circumstances for review, the idea being that the courts power of review ought to be exercised sparingly and only in the most deserving cases, bearing in mind the demand of public policy for finality of litigation and for certainty of the law as declared by the highest court.
