- Anup_Singh_Choudry abstract "Anup Singh Choudry (born 1950) is a Sikh writer and businessman formerly based in the United Kingdom who is now a High Court judge in Uganda. He was sworn in at a May 2, 2008 ceremony at the State House in Entebbe before Pres. Yoweri Museveni and Chief Justice Benjamin Odoki. On March 5, 2008 Choudry was approved to become a High Court judge for Uganda, the first Sikh High Court judge in that country.He has written several books, including Sikh Pilgrimage to Pakistan. Anup Singh Choudry is an Ugandan born Sikh of Punjabi ancestry. With his appointment as a Justice of the High Court of Uganda, he has now added the title of Judge/Justice to his credits as a lawyer, auditor, businessman and author of several books, (his Sikh Pilgrimage to Pakistan is his best known book among Sikhs). After being schooled in Uganda he traveled to England to study at the University of London and the University of Cambridge. After qualifying as a solicitor he practiced law in England for 20 years until 2000, when he was struck off the roll of solicitors as a result of being found guilty of committing conduct unbefitting a solicitor ; following which he practiced as an auditor in quality control. A Return to Uganda Mr. Choudry, who was born in 1950 in Uganda has come full circle now by returning to Uganda and its civil service. His grandfather Hari Singh had migrated from Rawalpindi to Uganda in the early 1900’s serving in the then Crown Colony's civil service system. His late father Tarlok Singh had also served in Uganda's civil service, retiring shortly before 1972 when Idi Amin, the Commander of Uganda's Army > coupe leader > Dictator turned President and finally CBE 'Conqueror of the British Empire' seized the properties and businesses of all the country's Asians and European citizens and forced around 30,000 Asians holding British Passports to flee to Britain.In 2004 Anup Singh Choudry was nominated for appointment as a Judge of the Uganda High Court by Uganda’s Judicial Service Commission being approved by the Ugandan parliament last month.Speaking on Respect Mr Choudry said the following in a recent interview: " In any decent society or civilised society we all have the same values as human beings and our values have a base in our spiritual values. At the moment society is looking to its social fabric to give it values and forgetting the spiritual base. And that is where we are losing respect as we would define it in the previous generations.""In my generation I was taught to respect elders, neighbours, the authorities and teachers. The moment that discipline breaks down what happens is a loss of respect for teachers, for your parents, your religion and the law." Quote by Mr Anup Singh Choudry to the BBC.Justice Choudry said he was delighted to be appointed to the bench and added that he would serve Uganda with the same vigour, diligence and dedication as had his late father Tarlok Singh and late grandfather Hari Singh.The new Justice was one of the delegates at the meeting in Lahore last year in connection with the setting up of Baba Nanak University at Nanakana Sahib in Pakistan where he eloquently put forward his case for allocation of 2500 acres of land for the University campus in a proposal that was successfully approved by the Pakistani authorities.".
