-          Kuba harabaye Inteko Rusange yatorewemo Umukuru w’Urugaga n’abagize Inama y’Urugaga, si ingingo yaburanishwa kuko byabaye nyuma y’ikizwa ry’urubanza, bikaba ntacyo byahindura. Nyuma y’uko icyorezo cya Covid-19 kigenjeje make, Inama y’Urugaga yasanze ari ngombwa ko inzego nkuru z’Urugaga zibanza gutorwa, kuko arizo ziri hejuru ugereranyije na Komisiyo akaba ari nazo zagombaga gutegura amatora ya Komisiyo ishinzwe imyitwarire.

-          Manda y’abagize Inzego z’Ibanze na Komite y’Abunzi ntikwiye kugereranywa n’iy’Inzego z’Urugaga, kuko izo nzego zidafatwa kimwe.

Tel n’est toutefois pas le cas lorsque le requérant démontre avoir subi un préjudice moral qui, sans être détachable de l’acte lui-même, est détachable de l’illégalité fondant l’annulation et insusceptible d’être intégralement réparé par cette annulation…. Toutefois, le requérant se contente d’indiquer que la décision de résiliation lui a causé un traumatisme psychologique et a porté atteinte à sa réputation et à sa dignité, sans pour autant démontrer qu’un tel préjudice ne pourrait pas être intégralement réparé par le présent arrêt d’annulation de cette décision. Ainsi, les conclusions indemnitaires relatives au dommage moral causé par la décision de résiliation doivent être rejetées comme non fondées)[13].
