A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Law (LLM in Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa). Prepared under the supervision of Professor Tsegaye Regassa, Faculty of Law, Addis Ababa University – Addis Ababa, Ethiopia The principal aim of this study is to examine law enforcement and human rights in a post war African society: Sierra Leone. The major question addressed in the course of this research is: should respect for human rights be relevant to law enforcement and should law enforcement officials in post conflict societies (such as Sierra Leone) be bound by national and international standards in domestic law enforcement in their countries? Also explores the use of dissuasive measures such as prosecution to minimise the culture of impunity by law enforcement officials especially during conflict and post conflict periods http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2008-11-24T12:09:18Z 2008-11-24T12:09:18Z 2008 Mini Dissertation Kamara, MB 2008, Law enforcement and human rights in post-conflict African Societies: the case of Sierra Leone, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/8060> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/8060 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights, Law Faculty, University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria
