This reference was filed on July 10 by runner-up in the Ialibu-Pangia seat, Stanley Liria, questioning the legality of polling that was conducted on Sunday, July 2, after it was deferred from Friday, June 30.
In the reference, the high court was asked to interpret section 130 of the Organic Law on National and Local Level Government elections.
But lawyers representing Liria today asked the Supreme Court to have the entire proceeding withdrawn.
