Court Stops Judge Chikopa Tribunal
The Lusaka High court has stopped proceedings of the Judge Lovemore Chikopa led tribunal pending the outcome of the judicial review granted to retired Supreme Court Judge Dr Phillip Musonda.
Lusaka high court Judge Florence Lengalenga stopped the tribunal proceedings after she granted Dr Justice Musonda a stay in the proceedings.
Justice Musonda was suspended by President Michael Sata together with High court Justices Charles Kajimanga and Nigel Mutuna on allegations of professional misconduct.
The tribunal which is chaired by Malawian Judge Lovemore Chikopa yesterday commenced its sitting with two witnesses appearing before it.
The two witnesses that appeared before the tribunal are High court Judge Albert Wood and high court acting Registrar Chilombo Phiri.

The judges know what they did that’s why they are using the law to buy time. Why are the blocking the tribunal if they do not commit any evil acts while serving?
