词条 | Kadhi courts |
释义 |
In May 2010, a three-judge bench of the High Court ruled that the inclusion of Kadhi courts in current Constitution was illegal and discriminatory.[3] A new Constitution of Kenya approved by referendum on August 4, 2010[4] establishes the Kadhi court system as a subordinate court under the superior courts of Kenya (Supreme Court, Court of Appeal, and High Court).[5] The language of the new constitution (section 170) states, "There shall be a Chief Kadhi and such number, being not fewer than three, of other Kadhis as may be prescribed under an Act of Parliament.... The jurisdiction of a Kadhi's court shall be limited to the determination of questions of Muslim law relating to personal status, marriage, divorce or inheritance in proceedings in which all the parties profess the Muslim religion and submit to the jurisdiction of the Kadhi's courts".[5][6] The establishment of Kadhi courts in the proposed constitution was a subject of debate, especially among Christian church leaders.[7] See also
