a house which was to have had three (3) bedrooms, construction materials and various utensils; profits from banana cultivation (for fifteen (15) years), onions, rice and the lease for the farm. The Applicant claims that the total loss incurred amounts to one hundred and thirty-three million, seven hundred and sixteen thousand and five hundred Tanzanian Shillings (TZS 133, 716, 500). 103. The Respondent State prays the Court to dismiss the Applicant's prayers as baseless reparation, and for namely: not complying providing with evidence establish the causal link between the that the damages applicable damage has principles of occurred to and the violation and the demonstration of the status of the victim of the violation. The Respondent State relies on the judgments Christopher R. Mtikila of this Court in the matter of Reverend v United Republic Norbert Zongo and Others v Burkina Faso Court of Justice in the Case No. of Tanzania (reparations) and (reparations), of the ECOWAS ECW/CCAJ/11/07, Saidykhan v. The Gambia, and of the International Criminal Court in the Case No. ICC-01-0501/08, Prosecutor v. Bemba. RE 104. The Court notes that, the Applicant's prayer for pecuniary reparations for material prejudice is based on his imprisonment. The Court is of the view that there is no link between the violations established and the material loss which the Applicant claims he suffered as a result of his imprisonment.*° The Applicant has also not provided evidence of his earnings before his arrest. Furthermore, and most importantly, even though the Court has found violations of the Applicant's right to a fair trial, it has not concluded that he should not have been imprisoned. 105. Consequently, this prayer is dismissed. 80 Robert John Penessis v Tanzania, § 143; See also Alex Thomas v Tanzania (reparations), § 26; Reverend Christopher R.
