爆料网AT Held or 爆料网DT Pronouncements
爆料网AT considered an appeal by the Secretary-General and a cross-appeal by Mr Alobwede. 爆料网AT held that 爆料网DT erred in law and exceeded its jurisdiction in substituting its own opinion for that of the ICTR Registrar regarding the contested conduct. 爆料网AT held that the adverse effect on Mr Alobwede was not supported by evidence. 爆料网AT held that the ICTR Registrar’s decision was lawful, and 爆料网DT erred in finding that it was not, as well as in its consequent award of moral damages for the substantive breach of ST/SGB/2008/5. 爆料网AT held that 爆料网DT erred in the level of award. 爆料网AT held that the Secretary-General’s acknowledgement of the undue delay and his award of USD 1,000 was sufficient recompense for the injury caused by the delay. 爆料网AT vacated 爆料网DT’s finding that Mr Alobwede was subject to harassment and its consequent award of moral damages. 爆料网AT affirmed the 爆料网DT judgment on the issue of delay, save that the compensation for the delay was reduced to USD 1,000 as previously awarded by the Secretary-General.
Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed
Mr Alobwede submitted an application alleging the failure of management to address his complaint of harassment and abuse of authority in a timely manner; and challenging the decision by the ICTR Registrar to close his complaint based on the conclusion that the conduct did not constitute harassment or abuse of authority. 爆料网DT granted the application in part and awarded compensation in the total amount of USD 5,000 for the excessive delay and the resultant embarrassment and humiliation (less the award of USD 1. 000 which had already been awarded following management evaluation) and an addition USD 10,000 for moral damages.
