jean ping represented by maitre william woll v the republic of gabon communication 69218 2022 achpr 11 9 mars 2022
The Commission finds that the communication was filed 15 months after exhaustion of internal remedies, exceeding the six-month reasonable time limit established by its jurisprudence. The applicant's arguments regarding exceptional circumstances and lack of equitable remedies are not sufficiently substantiated. No evidence of impossibility to file within six months is provided. The Commission also finds that the language used is not outrageously insulting and does not violate Article 56(3).
