Court reserves judgement on whether to lift injunction granted to opposition

Sep 30, 2013

BASSETERRE, St. Kitts, CMC - A High Court judge has reserved judgment in a case in which the St. Kitts-Nevis government is seeking to lift an injunction granted to opposition legislators wanting to stop the implementation of proposed changes to the constituency boundaries ahead of the next general elections. Justice Darshan Ramdhani over the weekend said he would need a couple of weeks to give his decision, ensuring that the conservatory order prohibiting the Governing General from signing the proclamation effecting constituency boundaries changes would remain in place. Justice Ramdhani heard arguments from both sides last Friday and according to attorney Athony Astaphan, who is representing Prime Minister Dr. Denzil Douglas, the judge has indicated he would need at least 14 days to deliver his judgment and that the order he made earlier on will stay enforced for the next 14 days.
