Public hearings for the Presidential Commission of Inquiry (CoI) into the March 2020 Regional and General elections have been suspended until February 6.

Chairman of the Commission of Inquiry, retired Justice Stanley John, at the end of yesterday’s session directed that during the break every effort be made to have witnesses appear when the hearing resumes. It is the commission’s intention to wrap up hearings by February 10.

He added that when the inquiry resumes, the attorney for the former Deputy Chief Election Officer Roxanne Myers can cross-examine witnesses. He said that the cross-examination should occur in the February 6 to 10 timeframe.
