00050 4 40. The Applicant further contends that the Respondent State's failure to issue him with the certified true copies of the records of proceedings and judgments of the District Court of Bunda made it impossible for him to exhaust local remedies because he could not appealthe decisions in Criminal Case No. 244 of 1995 and Criminal Case No. 278 of 1995 without them. The Applicant maintains that the Respondent State has failed to protect and uphold his right to appeal on time. ** 41. The Court notes that the requirement of exhaustion of local remedies must be complied with before an Application is filed at this Court. However, this condition may be exceptionally dispensed with if local remedies are not available, they are ineffective, insufficient or the domestic procedures to pursue them are unduly prolonged. Furthermore, the remedies to be exhausted must be ordinary judicial remedies.2 42. The Court notes that, in the instant case, the Applicant attempted to use the available remedies, by filing a notice of appeal dated 16 April 1996 in respect of Criminal Case No.278 of 1995 and a notice of appeal dated 22June 1996 in respect of Criminal Case No. 244 of 1995. Thereafter, he requested for the certified true copies of the records of proceedings and judgments in respect of these cases in order to file the actual appeals. The Applicant followed up with the Magistrate in Charge of the District Court of Bunda and the District Registrar and Presiding Judge of the High Court at Mwanza, in this regard, without any success. He also sought the intervention of the Respondent State's Commission on Human Rights and Good Governance but all his efforts were futile. 2 Alex Thomas v Tanzania Judgment op.cit, $ 64; Application No.003/2015.
