Gambia's first blind magistrate has presided over 1,000 cases in a decade

Muhammed Krubally, 41, became the Gambia's first visually impaired magistrate in 2016 and says he has since presided over more than 1,000 civil and criminal cases at the Banjul Magistrates' Court. He uses the JAWS screen reader and AI-enabled smart glasses, follows proceedings through sound and memory, and relies on his clerk when needed.
