Liquor Association wrong complainants-Keetshabe

The association filed the application three weeks ago.
In the application, the association prayed that the liquor traders' licenses should be declared valid.  They were also seeking a ruling that the continued disruption of their businesses by the state is unlawful for which the association also wanted the government interdicted.

The applicants applied that government should shoulder costs of the legal action.
In his short ruling on Friday, Rwelengera found that the officials of the association have no locus standi in the matter.  He said the constitution of the association does not give them the powers to sue.
