Court to hear Mmegi application to live stream elections petitions

Last week Monday the DPC Managing Director Titus Mbuya wrote the Registrar of the High Court, Michael Motlhabi requesting for permission to live stream proceedings of the cases involving UDC election petitions.

“We sincerely believe that the cases are of national importance following the recent general elections which were hotly contested. It is also our fervent belief that the cases are of great public interest as this is the first time that election results, for so many constituencies, have been challenged before the courts in Botswana,” Mbuya wrote.
