Saudi cabinet approves evidence law to develop the legislative system
Saudi Arabia’s cabinet approved a law of evidence to develop the Kingdom’s legislative system on Tuesday.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said the law of evidence is the first of four previously announced draft reform bills to be approved. The other three draft laws are the personal status law, the civil transactions law, and the penal code for discretionary sanctions.
The law of evidence will achieve a major qualitative leap in the judicial legislation system and establish principles based on firm references in judicial work.
