Attorney-General Kihara Kariuki. [Collins Kweyu, Standard]
Attorney-General Kihara Kariuki on Tuesday withdrew his application seeking to suspend High Court judgement on Building Bridges Initiative even after five judges directed they would rule on the same next week.
The AG, in his letter addressed to the court, said the application should be marked as withdrawn.
He had on Saturday filed an urgent application before the High Court to suspend the judges’ decision pending the appeal.
In his withdrawal papers, Justice Kihara said he wants to seek a similar remedy before the Court of Appeal.
Ealier in the day, Justices Joel Ngugi, George Odunga, Jairus Ngaah, Teresiah Matheka and Chacha Mwita had directed parties to file their responses on the AG’s application and they would rule on the matter on Wednesday.
