#BREAKING: MARAGA SLAMS LISSU TREASON TRIAL AS 'LEGALLY BANKRUPT', CALLS FOR IMMEDIATE FREEDOM Former Kenyan Chief Justice David Maraga has called for the immediate acquittal of Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu, describing the treason case against him as a "legally bankrupt" prosecution ahead of the High Court's judgment. In a strongly worded statement released through the United Green Movement (UGM) Party, Maraga said the evidence presented against the CHADEMA chairman failed to meet the legal threshold required to sustain a treason charge. He argued that political dissent, peaceful assembly and calls for electoral reforms cannot constitute treason under the law. Maraga further accused governments in the East African region of increasingly using treason and terrorism charges to sideline opposition figures and suppress criticism, warning that such actions threaten democratic governance and fundamental freedoms. The former Chief Justice also expressed solidarity with Lissu, his family and supporters, insisting that the future of the East African Community lies in constitutional reforms, democratic accountability and respect for human rights. His remarks came as Tanzania's High Court prepares to deliver its highly anticipated ruling in Lissu's treason case, a matter that has drawn widespread regional and international attention.
