A total of 7,824 detainees benefited from remote trials in the various courts of the Kingdom on November 16-20 following their consent, said the Higher Council of the Judiciary (CSPJ).
Some 333 hearings were held remotely in the courts of the Kingdom during the same period, during which 6,727 cases were scheduled, the CSPJ pointed out Tuesday in a statement.
The project of remote trials, launched in collaboration with the partners of the judicial system, is part of the strengthening of the values of openness and communication regarding the various measures implemented by the CSPJ to curb the spread of Covid-19 in the Kingdom, the source said.
The CSPJ also underlined its continued commitment to the remote trial project, in order to ensure that the courts continue fulfilling their constitutional duties and to enshrine the right to a fair trial within a reasonable deadline.
The Higher Council highlighted the sense of responsibility and commitment of all the components of the judicial system, calling on all actors to strictly respect the recommended prevention and precautionary measures, in order to avoid the risks associated with the spread of the Coronavirus.
