The Supreme Court of China has appointed former Chief Justice of Uganda, Bart Katureebe, a member of its expert committee on adjudication of international commercial disputes.
Mr. Katureebe retired from Uganda’s Supreme Court in June after reaching the mandatory retirement age of 70 years.
“I am profoundly excited about this appointment, for it is a high-level committee that will keep me professionally connected,” he was quoted as saying in a statement tweeted by Uganda’s judiciary.
The expert committee, established in August 2018, is a part of China International Commercial Court (CICC) which is an organ of China’s Supreme Court. It is comprised of 31 leaders of international organisations, legal experts, scholars, judges and lawyers selected from different countries, the statement by Uganda’s judiciary added.
It mediates international commercial disputes assigned to it, provides legal opinion on foreign laws when asked and gives advice on the future of the CICC.
The Chinese embassy in Uganda congratulated Justice Katureebe on his appointment.
