MK to appeal John Hlophe High Court ruling
The uMkhonto WeSizwe Party says it will appeal a ruling by the Western Cape High Court in a matter involving impeached former judge John Hlophe.
On Monday, the court found that the National Assembly's decision to nominate Hlophe to serve on the Judicial Service Commission was unconstitutional.
The MK Party deputy president and the organisation were ordered to pay the legal costs.

The party's national spokesperson, Nhlamulo Ndhlela, says they reject the ruling.
"The MK Party is determined to expose the fundamental injustices embedded in the current Constitution and will therefore appeal this shocking judgment in an effort to educate the public about the urgent need for parliamentary sovereignty blended with Indigenous African Law based on Ubuntu, collective ownership of economic resources and the will of the people where the law can no longer be manipulated to justify hatred for certain targeted individuals.”
