Public Prosecutor
Your morning at the Sessions Court begins with a case management review across 12 active trials — preparing for a morning hearing in a kidnapping case by reviewing your examination-in-chief notes for the next prosecution witness. In the afternoon session you deliver closing arguments in a drug trafficking case, citing forensic evidence and witness testimonies, and then visit a remand hearing for a new case to request judicial custody for the accused.
