Video: PSC void, SC determines

The Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC) has no legal power or authority to find a judge guilty because standing order 78(A) is not law, the Supreme Court determines.

The Court of appeal reading out the Supreme Court interpretation of the Constitution today stated the power to make a valid finding after investigation can be conferred on a court tribunal or any other body only by law and law alone.

The court said that the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of interpreting the constitution is with the Supreme Court

“The proceedings that commenced before PSC is not contemplated by law and the commencement of proceeding and continuance is prima facie void”, the appeal Court said. (By Hafeel Farisz)
