Digital and Electronic Evidence Training Manual

Your Role As A Witness

  • Categories: Law

Law enforcement officers including wildlife rangers, dog handlers and community scouts are bound to go to court as witnesses in wildlife cases. Unfortunately, their training does not prepare them for their role as witnesses in criminal trials and they lack skills in recording their own witness statements, understanding court procedures and often crumble under cross-examination. This Witness Handbook is designed to help Wildlife Rangers and Community Scouts navigate their way through the court system once they become witnesses to a wildlife crime and are required to give their testimony. The Handbook addresses issues related to witness testimony from the pre-trial phase to trial and finally the post-trial phase.

Analysis of Mozambique's Wildlife Policies and Laws

  • Categories: Law

Mozambique has developed comprehensive policies and laws for the protection, conservation and sustainable use of wildlife resources, with engagement of a wide range of stakeholders, including local communities and the private sector.
