i.
Material prejudice
129. In the instant case, the Applicant simply prays the Court to grant reparation
in such amount as the Court deems fit. He does not indicate the nature of
the material prejudice that he has suffered and how this is linked with the
violation of his rights as established by the Court in this judgment. In any
event, the Applicant does not support his prayers with proof of the loss
incurred.
130. In the circumstances, the Court, therefore, does not grant reparation for
material prejudice to the Applicant.
ii. Moral prejudice
131. The Applicant prays for the Court to order the Respondent State to pay
reparations to the Applicant as a direct victim stating that there are violations
under Article 7 and 14 of the Charter that the Applicant has suffered. The
Applicant further claims reparations for indirect victims who were his
dependants being the Applicant’s mother and three brothers. The Applicant
claims a total amount of Tanzanian Shillings Thirty Million (TZS 30,000,000)
for moral prejudice to himself and a total amount of Tanzanian Shillings Fifty
Million (TZS 50,000,000) for indirect victims.
132. The Applicant also submits that he has suffered severe hardships as his
health has deteriorated following his imprisonment owing to the prison
condition. He claims that as a consequence he has suffered from a broken
arm, deteriorating eyesight, haemorrhoids, anal fissures and skin disease.
He further avers that he has lost his social status in the community and that,
being the sole provider, he has been unable to provide for his family since
his imprisonment.
