Malawi
The Malawi Law Society (MLS) has expressed strong criticism over a 12-year delay in the Supreme Court of Appeal's ruling on a case involving Finance Bank of Malawi, the Reserve Bank of Malawi, and the Attorney General. The protracted legal process, which began in 2008 and concluded in 2026, has raised concerns about judicial efficiency and accountability. MLS warns that the delay undermines public confidence in the justice system and could result in significant financial implications for taxpayers, as any compensation awarded will be funded by public resources. The society calls for urgent reforms to address systemic inefficiencies and ensure timely justice delivery.
