The Con Court has dismissed the application for leave to appeal interdict granted to Ramaphosa.

Abstract editorial illustration

The Constitutional Court has refused to hear an appeal regarding President Cyril Ramaphosa's interdict issued by the Western Cape High Court. The High Court had previously halted the oral testimony and public hearings of the Impeachment Committee, pending the review of the Section 89 Independent Panel report. This review is set to be heard in September.

The application for leave to appeal directly to the Constitutional Court was filed by the African National Congress (ATM), the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), the MK Party (MKP), and the Impeachment Committee itself. Makashule Gana, the Chairperson of the Impeachment Committee, acknowledges the judgment and states that they will continue with their preparatory work.

The committee aims to finalize the terms of reference and appoint an evidence leader, indicating that the interdict has not hindered their progress.
