Law Relating to Jurisdiction of Armed Forces Tribunal | Original Article

ABSTRACT:

The Armed Forces Tribunal has been constituted under the Armed Forces Tribunal Act, 2007 for the adjudication of complaints and disputes regarding service matters and appeals arising out of the verdicts of the courts-martial of the members of the three services (Army, Air Force and Navy) to provide for quick and less expensive justice to the members of the Armed Forces. The Act created the Armed Forces Tribunal, a semi-civilian appellate court, as a check on the operation of military justice.
