The High Court has barred the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) from considering two petitions seeking the removal of Court of Appeal Judge Sankale ole Kantai over allegations linking him to the murder of Dutch tycoon Tob Cohen.
In a judgment delivered on Friday, Justice Chacha Mwita has declared that it would be premature and unlawful for the JSC to proceed with the petitions lodged by Senator Okiya Omtatah and Cohen’s sister, Gabrielle Van Straten, while a related case is still pending in court, as doing so would violate Justice Sankale’s right to a fair hearing.
