The Kandep Open seat election petition review hearing took place before a three-judge Supreme Court bench. This happened after the court refused a letter from Polye, requesting one of the judges on the bench to disqualify herself from hearing the case.
The hearing took place this afternoon and a decision was reserved to a later date.
Polye’s lawyer, Paulus Doa, told the court the trial judge made an error when he set aside Polye’s election on May 2.
He said the judge did not make any finding of facts or reason out why he set aside Polye’s election.
