Court rejects fast-track appeal over suspended P169m airbase tender

It threw out the expedited hearing appeal because the appellant, Zhong Gan, had failed to properly file its notice and grounds of appeal as required by the Court Rules.

The case involves a contested tender awarded to Zhong Gan on February 22, 2024, before it was suspended by the High Court on February 27, 2025, after another bidder, Hitecon, sought an interdict against the Ministry of Defence and Security, the BDF and Zhong Gan Engineering.
