Abu Dhabi: A new public prosecution and specialised judicial departments have been set up in Abu Dhabi to look into crimes against domestic workers.
Shaikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Presidential Affairs and Chairman of Abu Dhabi Judicial Department, issued on Wednesday a decree establishing a public prosecution and specialised judicial departments in the Court of First Instance to investigate crimes against domestic workers.
Shaikh Mansour’s move aims to enhance the effectiveness and sustainability of judicial processes and ensure that services are accessible for everyone.
This is to achieve the ultimate justice and consolidate the principles of tolerance and human rights through setting up of an institutional infrastructure to preserve the rights of all social, economic, ethnic and religious groups under the umbrella of the rule of law — and in conformity with the international guarantees and standards governing of human rights.
