 Kenyan lawyers boycott courts over alleged judicial corruption Kenyan lawyers staged a nationwide boycott of court proceedings on Wednesday to protest alleged judicial corruption and chronic delays. Cases in the East African nation take an average of two years to conclude, according to official records, with lawyers blaming graft and systemic inefficiencies. "The court boycott is going on in courts across the country, with many lawyers heeding the call," Charles Kanjama, the president of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), told reporters.

 Alexander brothers reportedly seek Trump pardons in sex trafficking case

Three brothers recently convicted in New York of a decades-long sex-trafficking conspiracy have explored avenues to seek pardons from former President Trump, according to people familiar with their efforts. The discussions, which began last year and continued after their conviction earlier this month, included outreach to a lobbyist and a prominent Jewish group known for influencing clemency efforts. There is no indication that the White House is considering their requests.

The brothers—Tal Alexander, 39, and twins Oren and Alon Alexander, 38—were arrested in 2024. Oren and Tal had previously been among the top luxury real estate brokers in the U.S., and their convictions sent shockwaves through the industry. They are scheduled for sentencing in August and face the possibility of life in prison. While their legal team has denied pursuing pardons and is focused on appeals, associates acknowledge that exploring clemency has been discussed. Despite the brothers’ connections to influential circles, experts say the chances of a pardon for individuals convicted of sexual crimes, including those involving minors, remain extremely slim.
