97. In view of the above, the Court dismisses the Applicant’s allegation that the Justices of Appeal violated his right to defence by failing to summon defence witnesses. The Court, therefore, finds that the Respondent has not violated Article 7(1)(c) of the Charter in respect of the summoning of defence witnesses. VIII. REPARATIONS 98. The Applicant prays the Court to grant him reparations for the violations that he suffered including quashing the judgment of the Court of Appeal, setting him at liberty and any other reliefs that the Court may deem necessary. 99. The Respondent State prays the Court to deny the Applicant’s request for reparations. *** 100. Article 27(1) of the Protocol provides that: If the Court finds that there has been violation of a human or peoples’ rights, it shall make appropriate orders to remedy the violation, including the payment of fair compensation or reparation. 101. In the instant case, since no violation has been established, the prayer for reparation is not justified. The Court, therefore, dismisses the Applicant’s prayer for reparation. IX. COSTS 102. In the present application, the Parties did not make any submissions regarding the costs of the application. *** 24
