Parliament Elections Act (No. 1 of 1981) - Sect 101

Report of Judges as to Corrupt or illegal practice

101. At the conclusion of the trial of an election petition the Election Judge shall also make a report setting out
(a) whether any corrupt or illegal practice has or has not been proved to have been committed by or with the knowledge and consent of any candidate at the election, or by his agent, and the nature of such corrupt or illegal practice, if any; and
(b) the names and descriptions of all persons, if any, who have been proved at the trial to have been guilty of any corrupt or illegal practice:
Provided, however, that before any person, not being a party to an election petition nor a candidate, is reported by an Election Judge under this section, the Election Judge shall give such person an opportunity of being heard and of giving and calling evidence to show why he should not be so reported. Such report shall be kept in the custody of the Registrar of the Court of Appeal to be dealt with as hereinafter provided.
