የገዛ የ12 ዓመት እህቱን የደፈረው ተከሳሽ በ15 ዓመት ጽኑ እስራት ተቀጣ!

በጋሞ ዞን ቁጫ ወረዳ የ12 ዓመት ታናሽ እህቱን የደፈረው ተከሳሽ በዛሬው ዕለት በችሎት ቀርቦ ጥፋተኛ ተብሏል።

ተከሳሹ ድርጊቱን ግንቦት 23 ቀን 2017 ዓ.ም እህቱን በማታለል ወደ ጫካ ከወሰደ በኋላ መፈጸሙን የክስ መዝገቡ ያስረዳል።

ተከሳሹ በዐቃቤ ህግ ድርጊቱን ስለመፈጸሙ የቀረበበትን ክስ ሙሉ በሙሉ መፈጸሙን በሰጠው የእምነት ክህደት ቃል በዝርዝር አምኗል።

ጉዳዩን ሲከታተል የቆየው የቁጫ ወረዳ ፍ/ቤት በዛሬው ዕለት በዋለው ችሎት ተከሳሽ በ 15 ዓመት ፅኑ እስራት እንዲቀጣ ወስኗል።

የመቐለ ማእከላዊ ፍርድ ቤት በእንስት ዘውዱ ሃፍቱ የግድያ ወንጀል ጉዳይ ላይ የመጨረሻ ያለውን ቀነ ቀጠሮ ሰጠ።

ሰኔ 30 ቀን 2017 ዓ.ም በእስር የሚገኙ ተከሳሽ ተጠርጣሪዎች ለውሳኔ ማቅለያ የሚሆን የህክምና ማስረጃ እናቀርባለን ባሉት መሰረት ለዛሬ ሀምሌ 3 ቀን 2017 ዓ.ም ቀጠሮ መስጠቱ ይታወሳል።

ይሁን እንጂ ዛሬ ችሎት ላይ የቀረቡት የተከሳሽ ጠበቆች " የመቐለ ዓይደር ሰፔሻላይዝድ ሆስፒታል ነገ አርብ ሀምሌ 4 ቀን 2017 ዓ.ም የህክምና ማስረጃ ለመስጠት ቀጠሮ ሰጥቶናል " ብለዋል።

ፍርድ ቤቱም ይህን አድምጦና ተቀብሎ የመጨረሻ ቀነ ቀጠሮ ለነገ ሰጥቷል።

በእንስት ዘውዱ ሃፍቱ የግድያ ወንጀል ላይ የመጨረሻ ውሳኔ ይሰጣል በሚል ዛሬ በመቐለ ማእከላይ ፍርድ ቤት የተበዳይና ተከሳሽ ቤተሰቦች ፣ በርካታ ሚድያዎች ፣ በሴት ጥቃት መከላከል ዙሪያ የሚሰሩ ስቪክ ማህበራት አመራሮችና አባላት ተገኝተው ነበር ።

ሁለት አመት ያስቆጠረው የእንስት ዘውዱ ሃፍቱ አሰቃቂ የግድያ ወንጀል ነገ ሀምሌ 4 ቀን 2017 ዓ.ም የመጨረሻ መቋጫ የፍርድ ውሳኔ ያገኝ ይሆን ? ቲክቫህ ኢትዮጵያ የመቐለ ቤተሰብ የችሎቱን ውሳኔ ተከታትሎ ያቀርባል።

የእድሜ ልክ ፅኑ እስራት ተፈርዶባቸዋል !

በእንስት ዘውዱ ሃፍቱ የጭካኔ የግድያ የተከሰሱት ተጠርጣሪዎች ጥፋተኞች ተብለው የፍርድ ውሳኔ ተላለፈባቸው።

ተከሳሾቹ ለፍርድ ውሳኔ ማቅለያ ይሆነናል በማለት " የቆየ ህመም አለብን " ቢሉም የመቐለ ዓይደር ስፔሻላይዝድ ሪፈራል ሆስፒታል ሃኪሞች የምርመራ ማስረጃ " የቆየ ህመም የለባቸውም " ሲል ምላሽ ሰጥቷል።

የመቐለ ማእላዊ ፍርድ ቤት በእንስት ዘውዱ ሃፍቱ አሰቃቂ ግድያ የመጨረሻ የፍርድ ውሳኔ ውሎ ምን ይመስል ነበር ?

የተጠርጣሪ ጠበቆች ትናንት ሀምሌ 3 " ደምበኞቻችን የቆየ ህመም አለባቸው ይህንን ለማረጋገጥ የህክምና ማስረጃ ለአርብ ሀምሌ 4 እናቀርባለን " ብለው ነበር።

ፍርድ ቤቱ ይህን ተቀብሎ ለዛሬ የመጨረሻ ውሳኔ ለመስጠት ቀነ ቀጠሮ ሰጥቶ ነበር።

ዛሬ አርብ ሀምሌ 4/2017 ዓ.ም ከመንግስት ሰራተኞች የስራ ሰዓት በፊት ቤተሰብ የሚገኙባቸው የሚድያና የሴቶች መብት ተቆርቋሪዎች በፍርድ ቤቱ በራፍ ደርሰው ተሰባስበዋል።

ተከሳሾች ለውሳኔ ማቅለያ ይሆነናል ብለው የጠየቁት የህክምና ማስረጃ የቆየ ህመም እንደሌለባቸው አረጋግጧል።

ዳኞችም ይህን ካረጋገጡ በኋላ በተከሳሾች ላይ ውሳኔ ሰጥተዋል።

አንደኛና ሁለተኛ ተከሳሾች ያሬድ ገብረስላሰ በላይ እና ኣንገሶም ሃይለማርያም በእድሜ ልክ ፅኑ እስራት እንዲቀጡ ፍርድ ቤቱ ወስኗል።

በፍርድ ቤቱ ውሳኔ አለመርካታቸው የገለፁት አስተያየት ሰጪዎች የወንጀል ደርጊቱን ከማጠራት እስከ ምርመራና ውሳኔ ድረስ በችግሮች የተተበተበ እንደነበር በመግለፅ ማረሚያ ቤት የፍርድ ውሳኔውን በጥብቅ እንዲተገብረው ጠይቀዋል። 

" የጭካኔ ግድያው የሞት ፍርድ ያሰጥ ነበር " ያሉ ሌሎች አስተያየት ሰጪዎች ደግሞ " የተበዳይ ቤተሰቦች ወደ ቀጣዩ የፍርድ ቤት ይግባኝ ይጠይቁ " ብለዋል።

ከነሀሴ 2015 ዓ.ም ጀምሮ እስከ ሀምሌ 4/2017 ዓ.ም የተጓዘው የእንስት ዘውዱ ሃፍቱ ግድያ በዚሁ ተቋጭቷል ሲል የቲክቫህ ኢትዮጵያ የመቐለ ቤተሰብ መረጃውን ልኳል።

ቲክቫህ ኢትዮጵያ መቐለ የእንስቷን ግድያ ከመነሻው እስከ ፍርድ ሂደቱ ሲከታተል ቆይቷል።

Ethiopia’s 2019 Civil Society Organizations (CSO) law was once seen as a major step toward opening civic space. Today, a new draft revision introduced by the Ministry of Justice raises serious concerns about a return to restrictive legal frameworks. In his latest blog, “The Return to Rule by Law,” Befekadu Hailu outlines the regression from reform to control, compares the current, past, and draft laws, and invites us to reflect on what’s at stake for civil society. Originally written in Amharic, this timely piece urges renewed attention to legal reforms. Read the full blog here: https://befeqe.blogspot.com/2025/07/rule-by-law-cso-en.html?m=1
