Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>JUDICIAL Complaints Commission (JCC) has urged Lusaka High Court not to entertain suspended Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Lillian Siyunyi\u2019s application for judicial review against the President\u2019s refusal to waive her oath of secrecy.<\/p>\n

JCC secretary Naisa Makeleta submits that the application should not be granted because it is fundamentally flawed, hence should be dismissed. \u201cIt is our submission that this matter is wrongly before this court as the decisions that the applicant desires to impugn do not illustrate that there is a case fit for further investigation,\u201d Ms Makeleta said.<\/p>\n

This is in a case Ms Siyunyi is seeking leave to start judicial review proceedings against the head of State\u2019s refusal to waive her oath of secrecy. She wanted the oath waived to enable her to respond to allegations of professional misconduct as DPP.<\/p>\n
