The Constitutional Court today dismissed Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai’s presidential election petition with costs and declared President Robert Mugabe duly elected. Tsvangirai had withdrawn the petition but Chief Justice Godfrey Chidyausiku said a petition challenging the validity of a presidential election could not be terminated by a withdrawal. “The purported withdrawal by applicant is of no legal force save to indicate that the applicant has abandoned his wish. The application is dismissed with costs,” Chidyausiku said.
