Lawyers for the petitioner in the 2020 presidential election petition, have written to the Supreme Court asking to be given the opportunity to address the Court before its ruling on the motion seeking to reopen the cad of the petitioner.
The lawyers in a letter dated February 15, 2021, and addressed to the Chief Justice said they want to address a question asked by Justice Samuel K Marful -Sau, as a member of the panel during Mr. Tsikata’s arguments.
The judge had asked Mr Tsikata whether the court was not judicially barred from granting the application to reopen the case to enable the petitioner subpoena the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Mrs Jean Mensa to testify.
“We respectfully wish to crave the indulgence of your Lordships to hear lead counsel on this matter which came up during the question of Justice Marful-Sau right at the end of the day’s proceedings. This opportunity to address the court on the issue before the ruling that Your Lordships are due to deliver tomorrow on our application will, in our respectful view, advance the interest of justice,” the letter stated.
