Raymond Claudius Sock (born 5 June 1946)[1] is a Gambian judge who currently serves as a Justice of the Supreme Court of the Gambia.
By 1989, he had become the Solicitor General and Legal Secretary, and was seconded to help establish the African Centre for Democracy and Human Rights Studies (ACDHRS), where he served as its first Executive Director, responsible for the creation of the centre's first programmes, in collaboration with organisations such as the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ).
Between 1989 and 1995, Sock authored several articles on human rights in Africa and organised various meetings and workshops on the subject.
[2] From 1995 to 2000, Sock worked in private legal practice as a senior partner, during which he handled both civil and criminal cases, including murder and treason.
[4][5] He was dismissed in June 2015 alongside Justice Gibou Janneh, a decision decried by Kairo News as "taking away the Gambian touch at the higher echelon in legal rulings.
