Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo wants all statements of poll (SOPs) for votes cast in Region Four at the March 2 general and regional elections to be produced to the court by the Guyana Election Commission (GECOM).

This request was made by  his attorneys yesterday before Justice Franklyn Holder, who is hearing a challenge by Jagdeo to the legality of the March 13th declaration of results for Electoral District Four (Region Four), made by Returning Officer Clairmont Mingo.

Senior Counsel Neil Boston, who represents GECOM, has, however, said that those documents will not be provided.
