The Rt. Hon. Lord Justice Rabinder Singh currently sits as a Lord Justice of Appeal in the Court of Appeal of England and Wales, the President of the Investigatory Powers Tribunal and a member of the Privy Council appointed by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Sir Rabinder “reached one of the highest ranks achieved by a non-white judge in Britain, and was thought to be the youngest judge to sit in the High Court”, AALA said in a statement.
Moreover, the organisation noted, he is “the first Sikh to be made a High Court judge, and wears a turban rather than a wig while presiding”.
The organisation welcomed Sir Rabinder as its first international patron: “We envisage a transformative impact and future contribution to our cultural diversity narrative in the fullness of time.”
