Defense Minister on reinstating court martial
Posted on 2023-05-08 17:27:13
Discussions of whether to reinstate the system of court martial are ongoing,
that's according to the Ministry of National Defense.

In a recent written report to the Legislature, the M-N-D indicated that if
society reaches a consensus on the reinstatement of court martial, the
Ministry will launch the procedures of amending the existing law.

The amendments to the Military Trial Act in 2013, which stripped the military
of its power to prosecute and punish its own personnel during peace time,
meant military jails were closed and military courts shut down in 2014.

However, the voices of reinstating them grew louder last year due to many
incidents that proved civilian courts couldn't meet the demands of the armed
forces.'

Many lawmakers from across the political spectrum have also expressed their
support for reinstating the court martial system.
