UDC accuses IEC of fishing for controversy

The coalition says the IEC is looking for controversy where there is none and such should not distract the court, the parties or the informed observers of the case that the commission was litigating against its obligation. “Controversy is being drawn by the commission leading to its appeal before the Court of Appeal.

However, its grounds of appeal should not distract the court, the parties or the informed observers of this case that in essence, the IEC is litigating against its obligation to conduct elections efficiently, properly, freely and fairly," contended the UDC.
