Armed Forces Tribunal Law

Armed Forces Tribunal (AFT)

A specialised tribunal that adjudicates disputes relating to service matters and appeals against court martial decisions involving armed forces personnel.

The AFT hears matters like disputed promotions, pensions, disciplinary action, and appeals from court martial verdicts, providing a dedicated forum for military personnel rather than routing such disputes through ordinary civil courts.

Appeals against AFT decisions, in specified circumstances, can be taken further to the Supreme Court.
