Kigoma. The High Court has upheld the legality of the Presidential Commission of Inquiry into Criminal Acts Connected with the Violence during and after the 2025 General Election, throwing out a petition that sought to nullify it.
Justice Wilbert Chuma, sitting at the Kigoma Sub-Registry on Friday, July 17, 2026, dismissed the judicial review application with costs, ruling that the head of state acted well within her statutory powers.
“In those circumstances, this court finds that the application lacks merit and is hereby dismissed. Each party shall bear its own costs,” ruled Justice Chuma.
