democracy, the rule of law, accountability, transparency, social justice,

In the Katabazi case, this Court was confronted with a similar objection. After
considering the objectives of the Community as set out in Article 5(1), the
fundamental principles of the Community particularly in Article 6(d), the
operational principles in Article 7, as well as Article 8(1) where Partner States
undertake, among other things to:
“Abstain from any measures that are likely to jeopardize the
achievement of those objectives or implementing of the provisions of this
Treaty”,
Court held that:
“While the Court will not assume jurisdiction to adjudicate on human
rights disputes, it will not abdicate from exercising its jurisdiction of
interpretation under Article 27(1) merely because the reference includes
allegations of human rights violations.”
