The Court notes, on this score, that the Newspaper
article of 16 March
2011,
the
letter of 11 May 2012, the Tanzania Legal and Human Rights Centre 2010, 2011 and
2012
Reports
and,
lastly the statement
of Dr. V. Umbritch,
as pieces
of evidence
deserve attention.
40.
As regards the letter of 11 May 2012, the Court notes that, that letter was produced
by the Applicants in the initial procedure in response to the Registry’s letter dated 30
April 2012,
requesting
them
“to produce
evidence
that the Application
has
met the
conditions set forth in Rule 34 of the Rules of Court”. The Court notes that in the said
letter of 30 April 2012, the Applicants wanted to show, in their own words,
“how our
Application meets the requirements under Rule 34 of the Rules of Court’. They also
explained
“the evidence
of exhaustion
of local remedies
including judgments
and all
possible annexures to assist efficiency of handling the case”.
41.
The
Court
deduces
from
the
aforesaid
that
the
evidence
constitute new evidence, given the fact that the same
in question
does
not
had been amply analysed by
the Court in its Ruling of 28 March 2014, especially in paragraphs 27 and 28 thereof.
42.
As regards the Newspaper
Legal and Human
Umbritch,
the
article of 16 March
2011, the Reports
of the Tanzania
Rights Centre of 2010, 2011 and 2012, and the statement of Dr. V.
Court
notes
that
the
Applicants
have
produced
these
pieces
of
evidence as new proof of undue prolongation of local remedies.
43.
The Court finds that the evidence relating to the Tanzania
Centre
Reports
of 2010,
2011
and
2012
Legal and Human
dwelt on the question
of payment
Rights
of the
pensions of a group of ex-employees of the EAC. The Reports also dwelt on the slow
pace of the procedure, the politicisation of the matter and the human rights violations
observed, especially the rights of older women.
