Supreme Court of Kenya (kenyan-post.com)
The site is developed by two non-governmental organisations, AfriCog and InformAction, will be launched by Maina Kiai, the United Nations special rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association.
It will contain all the testimonies and evidence put forward during the Supreme Court hearings last month on the concluded Kenyan election, which was eventually won by Uhuru Kenyatta.
Kiai says the site will include cases filed at the Supreme Court, but also material and information from citizens, observers and others, and that the site will serve as a tool to keep the IEBC and the Supreme Court in check.
“Importantly, The People’s Court will be an accountability mechanism on the IEBC and the Supreme Court,” he said. “Analysis of the Court's decision will be posted on the website hoping to engender critical and constructive discussions on why they took the decision that they did, in the face of the evidence that will be presented.
“The People’s Court gives the public unique access to all the evidence filed at the Supreme Court in the Civil Society petition challenging the election process.”
Members of civil society have been requested to attend the website launch at Sarova Stanley Hotel in Nairobi.
