Weak keep. I can find some coverage through Newspapers.com: e.g. 1. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 11:47, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I believe judges of the Supreme Court of Mauritius pass WP:JUDGE, even those that served during the country's colonial period. Furthermore, this one has been knighted, which is almost invariably held as an indication of notability. At least two obituaries are available on Google Books: [1], [2] and there's coverage available in period newspapers. Seems like a clear keep to me. Jfire (talk) 21:03, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The rationale presented by Jfire is convincing. BoyTheKingCanDance (talk) 04:48, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
