In a press statement, the board said over 25,000 women had applied for the 60 vacancies. The candidates have been interviewed and the selected candidates will start working in the female sections of the board and its affiliated courts.

The jobs include legislative researcher, case researcher, statistics researcher, assistant legal researcher, registry clerk and clerk and documents warden, the statement said.

The nominees have been contacted and dates set for them to produce their original national identity cards, two copies of their university certificates and two copies of each training certificate.
