(Kwacha Lumpur) The pending court case against Sesam has been dismissed by public prosecutor Brunolando. But while justice prevails it has unearthed the deeply fragile nature of the Kachingaporean law.
It seemed like a chapter from Albert Camus’ absurd novel “L’Etranger”: Sesam being called to the Kashingaporean Court without knowing what the charges against him were. The proceeding judge, being the monarch Woshiempire, giving Sesam 24 hours time to react against the allegations the accused was unaware of. An almost Kafkaesque discussion emerged about Kashingaporean law emerged between the accused and the Court.
Fair Trial?
Sesam pointed out to the judges that the trial wasn’t going to proceed according to the regulations made in the Kashingaporean Law. For starters there was an issue with the number of judges. In Section 4 of the Kashingaporean Law it is clearly stated that there should be three judges, and only two had been appointed. As the case dragged on, it become more and more clear that the Monarch was planning to be the third judge.
Again, the accused had to point out to the Monarch, who had written the lawbook himself, that this was against Kashingaporean Law.
In orde to procede with the case, the Court – or better, the Monarch – decided that the Cabinet would get the third vote as a judge. Once again, completely against the regulations stipulated in Section 4 of the Kashingaporean Law.
When all was dark, and it seemed like Sesam wouldn’t get the fair trial any citizen of the Federation deserves, suddenly the light came: the case was dismissed by Public Prosecutor Brunolando, in the name of the Monarch.
Kashingapore Law is a joke
Let’s face it: the Kashingaporean Court is a joke. The Public Prosecutor is merely a puppet for the Monarch. Instead of running a real procedure in the hunt for justice he is just taking orders.
Any court case where the court is run by a Main Judge who is also involved in a case is merely a farce, a facade for dictatorship.
The best proof is that Sesam was removed from citizenship, even after this case was dropped. No court case, no second chance and not even the possibility of a higher appeal: the supreme leader has decided. One person had spoken up against His wil, and Woshiempire demanded punishment.
And while the court doesn’t work, because Woshiempire’s law is faulty and full of errors, it is quite simple to impose his absolute powers on those below him.
Freedom of speech
It’s safe to say that freedom of speech is not intact in Kashingapore. This case is clearly being used as a means of showing Woshiempire’s teeth.
This case is a warning to others: don’t expect a fair trial in Kashingapore. Even if you win, you lose.
Next round, the Miniconomist will be run from another country that isn’t a dictatorship, but we will be monitoring this country closely. In the next couple of days we will roll out the ‘Free Speech Watch’-campaign, that will help us gain reliable sources from within the dictatorship – so we can continue to bring the news from within the borders of the North-Korea of the Federation.
