Rielsa Marsef is the current Prime Minister of Aziallis, being in office as Prime Minister since 2010. She is on track to become the longest serving Prime Minister of Aziallis. He was formerly the Minister for Home Affairs under former Prime Minister Arpras Leyorknev and served as a Member of the Legislative Council of the State of Hivevka. She also served as the Attorney General of the Union Government from 2002 to 2005.
Early Life
Rielsa Marsef was born on the island of Undyure in Gayambee in December 1955 to refugee parents Arotswa Marsef and Ruje Marsef. Two months after she was born, her parents were resettled in the small town of Shevaska in Hivevka by the National Azillian Refugee Settlement Authority. Both her parents got jobs in the city- her father taking up a position as a security guard and her mother becoming a clerk at a bank. In 1959, both her parents were granted Azillian citizenship.
In June of 1961, when Rielsa was 6 years old, her mother got a scholarship to study at the Orhena Port College, and she moved to Orhena with young Rielsa, while her father stayed in Shevaksa.
In 1965 her mother finished a dual degree in Literature and was offered the position of Head Librarian at the University of Srega. She accepted and Rielsa moved with her to Srega, where she stayed with her mother on the campus of University of Srega.
Education
High School
In 1968 Rielsa Marsef started High School at National Public School, SregaU Campus. She applied for an accelerated programme where she could finish high school in three years instead of four. She qualified for the accelerated course and was able to finish High School in 1970 at the age of 15. She excelled in all of her courses. She was quite interested in mathematics at that point, and was planning to major in mathematics and statistics in college.
Bachelor's
Marsef applied to several schools and was accepted to the University of Triminoska. She shifted to Neosk and studied there for four years. She majored in Mathematics, with a minor in Statistics, but she was quite fascinated by social sciences while she was at University.
Master's
After becoming very interested in the Social Sciences, and wanting to apply her mathematics skills to it, she decided to go to the University of Mengasa for a Masters with their Social Sciences Department. There she studied Economics and Political Science. For her thesis she worked with Professor Qaila Farish on understanding the interaction of law and socioeconomics for marginalised groups. She travelled to Vyaardh and Ayezhkh to study these interactions in-depth.
Law School
After having worked on the effects laws had on socioeconomic and sociopolitical status of marginalised communities, Marsef decided to dedicate herself to the study of law. She studied law at the Institute of Legal Studies at the University of Srega. She worked with Vashe Jombheal at the High Court of Hivevka as a second-year law student. In her third year, she worked the summer with Centre for Tribal Protection in Gayambee. And for her final clerking, she worked with Yustaan Marshob at the Supreme Court of Aziallis.
Career
Samhenshe
After graduating from Law School, Marsef wasn't sure if she wanted to continue in Academia or practice law. After she was successful in her application to work for the Samhenshe Foundation, she made the decision to practice law there, for which she moved to Varega. At Samhenshe, Marsef got to work firsthand with former Chief Justice of Aziallis Marie Suvese. She represented several small tribes and communities against large corporations or government infrastructure projects. She even got to work on larger projects in Varega, though she primarily worked out of Srega and Orhena in Hivevka, where she practiced in the High Court of Hivevka. Marsef often talks about how Suvese convinced her that she should work more with vulnerable groups and how Suvese is the reason she got a doctorate.
State Financial Crimes Bureau, Hivevka
Since Marsef was working for Samhenshe for very little pay, she spent her nights working for the National Financial Crimes Bureau of Hivevka, specifically working in tracing financial crime circuits, given her experience with math. She worked with them to get extra cash for the project she was interested in starting, an expansion of the Samhenshe model.
Peoples' Liberation Network
After working for four years at Samhenshe, Marsef decided to start working part-time with them, and along with friends from law school- Liona sihMeresha, Areya Jaxa and Yehn Uzwa decided to start the Peoples' Liberation Network, that provided common folk with legal advise and represented people pro bono when they could not afford it. Marsef started practicing in the Supreme Court, leaded the case Gareh Jangi v. State of Urreyssal, considered a landark Supreme Court judgement. She was also responsible for the Vizaga and others v. Union of Aziallis which lead to the Vizaga Guidelines and the eventual Prevention of Sexual Harrassment at Workplace Act, 1986.
