  • Haute Cour siégeant à Lobatse, juin 1991, Unity Dow v Attorney GeneralHRQ, Vol. 13, 1991, pp. 614-626 (arrêt confirmé par la cour d’appel le 3 juillet 1992 ci-dessous) [Rapport droit international / droit interne], p. 623 : « I am strengthened in my view by the fact that Botswana is a signatory to the O.A.U. Convention on Non-Discrimination. I bear in mind that signing the Convention does not give it the power of law in Botswana but the effect of the adherence by Botswana to the Convention must show that a construction of the section which does not do violence to the language but is consistent with and in harmony with the Convention must be preferable to a ‘narrow construction’ which results in a finding that section 15 of the Constitution permits unrestricted discrimination on the basis of sex ».
