On Thursday December 5, Tajikistan's President Emomali Rahmon and Dushanbe's Mayor Rustam Emomali inaugurated the new building of the Supreme Court.

The Tajik president’s official website says that following the opening, they met with representatives of the country's judicial system.

The Supreme Court’s 15-story building was constructed by the Directorate for Government Buildings of President’s Executive.  The construction reportedly cost 185 million somonis from the state budget.

Rahmon was informed that the new building includes 171 office rooms, a 400-seat conference hall, 8 courtrooms, a judicial archives room, reception areas for citizens, a detention area for defendants, a press conference hall, and both traditional and digital libraries.  The premises are equipped with modern amenities.  The basement houses parking for 25 vehicles.

The building's exterior is reportedly designed with granite and marble tiles, with a facade decorated in a unique Tajik national style.  Offices, conference rooms, and corridors feature national patterns, glass mosaics, and natural stones.  The interior spaces are decorated with gypsum carvings, panels made of precious wood, and high-quality paints.

In his speech, the president emphasized that in such newly created conditions, the staff of government agencies must responsibly serve the protection of human rights and freedoms, the interests of the country, organizations, and institutions, as well as uphold legality, justice, and the rule of law.
