B. Other admissibility requirements 61. The Court notes that although no objection has been raised regarding the requirements set out in Rule 50(2)(a), (b), (c), (d), and (g) of the Rules, it must ensure that the consolidated Applications fulfil these requirements. 62. From the record, the Court notes that, both Applicants have been clearly identified by name in fulfilment of Rule 50(2)(a) of the Rules. 63. The Court also notes that the claims made by both Applicants seek to protect their rights guaranteed under the Charter. Furthermore, one of the objectives of the Constitutive Act of the African Union, as stated in Article 3(h) thereof, is the promotion and protection of human and peoples’ rights. Additionally, the consolidated Applications do not contain any claim or prayer that is incompatible with a provision of the said Act. Therefore, the Court considers that the consolidated Applications are compatible with the Constitutive Act of the African Union and the Charter and holds that the requirement of Rule 50(2)(b) of the Rules is fulfilled. 64. The Court further notes that the consolidated Applications do not contain any disparaging or insulting language with regard to the Respondent State or its institutions, in compliance with the Rule 50(2)(c) of the Rules. 65. The consolidated Applications are also not based exclusively on news disseminated through mass media, rather they are based on documents from the municipal courts of the Respondent State. Thus, the requirements of Rule 50 (2) (d) of the Rules are complied with. 66. The Court also holds that the consolidated Applications do not raise any matter or issues previously settled by the parties in accordance with the principles of the Charter of the United Nations, the Constitutive Act of the African Union, the provisions of the Charter or of any legal instrument of the African Union as required under Rule 50(2)(g) of the Rules. 18
