R. v. Mulengela s/o Bahombe, Crim. Sass. 95-Bukoba-67, Mustafa J.

Complainant was abducted in Tanzania and taken to Burundi, where he alleges that accused tried to murder him. Accused argued that since the purported attempted murder took place in Burundi, a Tanzanian court had no jurisdiction to hear the case.

            Ruled: The case is cognizable under Tanzanian law because the alleged attempted murder was part of a transaction which began in Tanzania. [P.C. s. 7.]
