The Judge Lovemore Chikopa tribunal is this morning expected to commence sittings with focus expected to be matters surrounding the resignation of one of the suspended Supreme Court judge Phillip Musonda.
Justice Musonda recently wrote a resignation letter in circumstances observers say have left the tribunal in an awkward position as it pre-empts the judicial process.
His co-accused Nigel Mutuna and Charles Kajimanga have mounted a legal challenge and have since been granted leave to seek judicial review in a matter that has dragged on leaving the imported Malawian Judge Lovemore Chikopa to be drawing pay without doing any work.
President Michael Sata had ordered the investigation of the two judges that are said to have crossed the paths of his close associates in Post Newspapers owner Fred M’membe and Director of Public Prosecutions Mutembo Nchito.
Justice Mutuna had ordered the duo who were business partners in the defunct Zambian Airways to pay the K14 billion they owed the Development Bank of Zambia but they resorted to seeking the intervention of Sata who they aided to rise to power.
