The Court of Appeal's first session for 2020 began on Tuesday with the apex court president, Justice Kananelo Mosito, imploring judges not to be swayed by public opinion.
Each of the six judges appeared on a big screen erected inside the court building as Justice Mosito conducted a roll call during the opening session on Tuesday.
In his opening remarks, Justice Mosito appealed to judges not to be swayed by public opinion but to stick to legal principles when handling cases.
On 12 February 2020, Thabane Jr teamed up with Khauhelo Molapo, Thuto Makhooane and Thato Sibolla to file an application in the apex court for an order to set aside Justice Mahase's controversial decision to grant Ms Thabane bail.
Another application that is before the apex court is that of the 10 soldiers who have appealed against Zimbabwean Judge Justice Charles Hungwe's refusal to recuse himself from presiding over their murder trials.
