THE African Transformation Movement (ATM) has taken the chairman of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), Mosotho Moepya, to court. ATM president Vuyolwethu Zungula said on Wednesday, 12 June that his party has filed papers with the Electoral Court. “The ATM has taken a decisive step towards ensuring electoral integrity and justice by filing papers with the Electoral Court, calling for the court’s due consideration into allegations of misconduct,” Zungula said. The case stems from allegations that Moepya plotted with the ANC in an attempt to deregister the party in 2019. He said the party addressed concerns regarding the IEC's credibility and impartiality in overseeing elections.
