*Lawyer Jaqueline Sande Apologises For Alleging Judiciary Bias In Kasukuwere Vs Mangwana Case* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?mh Lawyer Jaqueline Sande, representing Savior Kasukuwere, has issued a retraction and apology for alleging that the judiciary was favouring the ZANU PF party in the case involving Kasukuwere and Lovedale Mangwana. Following these remarks, the Judicial Services Commission (JSC) instructed Sande to withdraw her statements and offer an apology. The JSC deemed Sande’s comments to be unfounded, legally incorrect, and lacking any basis. They characterised her statements as malicious attacks aimed at undermining the integrity of the Supreme Court and its judges. The JSC expressed concern that if left unaddressed, such remarks would compromise the independence of the courts and erode public trust in the judiciary. Consequently, the JSC granted Sande a week to retract her statements publicly, issue a written letter of apology to the Supreme Court, and issue a written public notice acknowledging the harm caused by her false statements. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- In response, Sande held a press conference where she expressed remorse for her comments.
