On 29 July 2024, the Supreme Court Panel issued its decision on Salih Mustafa’s request for protection of legality. The Supreme Court Panel granted his request, in part, and annulled the appeal judgment insofar as it relates to Mr Mustafa’s sentence of 22 years of imprisonment.

The Panel returned the case back to the Appeals Panel in accordance with Rule 194(1)(b) of the Rules to consider reducing his sentence in light of the reasoning set out in the decision of the Supreme Court Panel. More details in the decision.
