the issues raised and to repair the harm suffered. Lastly, he submits that it is not necessary to file an application for review of the Court of Appeal’s decision as alleged by the Respondent State. *** 39. The Court notes that, pursuant to the provisions of Article 56(5) of the Charter, which are restated in Rule 50(2)(e) of the Rules, any application brought before the Court must meet the requirement of exhaustion of local remedies. As regards the remedies to be exhausted, the Court has held that they must be ordinary judicial remedies.9 40. Furthermore, in accordance with its case law, the Court emphasizes that, in the judicial system of the Respondent State, the Applicants are not required to file a constitutional petition before the High Court for violation of rights after the Court of Appeal adjudicated on the matter. Furthermore, this remedy has been deemed by this Court to be an extraordinary remedy.10 41. The Court observes that, in the instant Application, the Court of Appeal ruled on the Applicant’s appeal on 16 July 2004. The Applicant therefore exhausted all local remedies, having passed through the various stages of the judicial system up to the Court of Appeal, which is the highest court of the land.11 42. In view of the foregoing, the Court dismisses the objection and holds that the Applicant exhausted local remedies as required by Article 56(5) of the Charter and Rule 50(2)(e) of the Rules. 9 Laurent Munyandilikirwa v.
