Suspended judges demand accurate transcripts

In an application to be heard tomorrow before court, the applicants Key Dingake, Modiri Letsididi, Mercy Garekwe and Ranier Busang have accused the Registrar and Master of the High Court, together with the court reporter, of availing inaccurate transcripts that have clear omissions of court proceedings.  The quartet wants the panel of judges to provide directions after the Registrar failed to comply with provisions of the Rules of the High Court.

They have launched the application seeking leave to amend the transcripts, which they say were certified by the court reporter as accurate and complete despite the opposite being the truth. The application follows an order that was issued by the panelled judges on October 13, compelling the Registrar to provide a complete and accurate record of proceedings held on February 4, March 31, April 28, and May 19, 2016 respectively.
