BOMET senator loser Nick Salat has
accused the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission of interfering with
ballot boxes.
Salat, who lost the race to Senator
Wilfred Lesan, said the electoral commission has “in irregular manner and
without any notice to the concerned parties” interfered with ballot boxes which
were under the custody of the Kericho law courts.
He said the ballot boxes were
removed from the courts' precincts by people who secretly sneaked in and broke
padlocks placed by the parties involved.
In a court papers addressed to the
registrar of the Supreme Court and received at the Kericho law courts
yesterday, Salat said he was not informed of the circumstances under which
ballot boxes were removed and the “motive for doing so”.
The Kanu secretary general has lost
an petition at the High cOurt and Court of Appeal. He moved to the Supreme
Court for redress.
At the earlier ruling, Salat was
ordered to pay the costs after losing the appeal.
Lesan is demanding Sh78 million in
costs from Salat.
Salat
alleges Lesan's election was marred with malpractices and bribery.
Presiding judges Smokin Wanjala and
Mohamed Ibrahim said the appeal raises serious constitutional issues and is of
great public interest.
