A source from the Constitutional Court clarified to OPAÍS that what happened was merely the receipt of the file from the UNITA party calling for the removal of the President of the Republic. The source also explains that what has been circulated by a certain media outlet is mere speculation, and even the plenary of that court has not yet analyzed the matter.
To this newspaper, the source we cited explained that this is a normal process of receiving a document. This information appears following the entry of UNITA having sent two legal processes to the Constitutional Court.
This is the successive abstract review of the constitutionality of the Rules of Procedure of the National Assembly and another on parliamentary litigation within the scope of the process of indictment and dismissal of the President of the Republic. Therefore, the source we have been citing clarifies that the next step will be to schedule a meeting to analyze the document, which according to the source there is still no plan for it to be held in plenary.
“The Plenary of the Constitutional Court has not yet analyzed the document, much less, obviously, issued a ruling on the matter”, he said, clarifying that there is not even a date for this. According to the source, there is a work agenda at the level of the Constitutional Court, with other matters no less important on the agenda, so the analysis of each dossier must, in principle, follow the order of entry.
