More than a year after the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) filed an election petition with the High Court, the matter is still to be heard.
Today, the party’s General Secretary Clement Rohee and a string of supporters protested the High Court in Georgetown, contending that “justice delayed is justice denied.”
“We want our petition to be heard, we want our petition to be expedited,” Rohee told a large pool of reporters in front of the High Court.
Since before the elections results were officially declared and gazetted, the PPP/C made several requests to the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), calling for a total recount of the ballots, but to no avail.
In the application submitted to the court, the Party identified a long list of particulars which led to the conclusion that Elections 2015 were massively rigged in favour of the APNU+AFC coalition.
