adjudicate on it in line with Article 9(4) of the Protocol A/P1/7/91 on the Community Court of Justice (Protocol), which provides, “The Court has jurisdiction to determine cases of violation of human rights that occur in any Member State.” VIII. ADMISSIBILITY 18.Admissibility of applications by this Court is provided for by Article 10(d) (i) and (ii) of the Supplementary Protocol 2005 which provides thus: “Access to the Court is open to…d) individuals on application for relief for violation of their human rights; the submission of application for which shall: i) not be anonymous; nor ii) be made whilst the same matter has been instituted before another International Court for adjudication.” 19.These provisions implicate three criteria for an application to be admissible: 1) the status of the applicant as a victim of human rights violations must be established; 2) the application shall not be anonymous; 3) the application shall not be instituted before another International Court for adjudication.

REPUBLIC OF TOGO ECW/CCJ/JUD/08/13 PAGE.9 20.In addressing the first requirement, an additional element is implicated, that is, proof of capacity as a proper party to file an action. Thus ahead of determining whether a party is a victim or otherwise, which is an analysis on merit it is imperative to first examine the capacity of the Applicants to institute this action. This is more compelling particularly in light of the fact that the first Applicant is described in the Application as a legal person known as the Registered Trustees of Faculty of Peace Organisation, which is a Non-Governmental Organisation registered in Nigeria. 8
