High Court Summons Pope Kamara Over Injunction Breach
The High Court has issued a formal summons for Mohamed Pope Kamara to appear on Monday, 19 October, to address allegations that he violated an active interim injunction restricting executive members of the All Peoples Congress (APC) from acting in official party capacities.
Justice Adrian Fisher ordered the subpoena following reports that Kamara repeatedly identified himself in media outlets as the APC’s Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary and made public statements in contravention of the judicial directive.
Granted on 27 August 2026, the interim injunction explicitly prohibits APC executives serving under the 2022 Constitution from performing official duties, convening or attending executive meetings, supervising party governance, or engaging in day-to-day operations pending further court orders.
During proceedings, Justice Fisher highlighted specific instances of potential non-compliance, including a video interview where Kamara claimed the executive title, an article titled “IGR’s APC Potential Flagbearer Survey Lacks Credibility, Transparency and Independence,” and a report published on 14 October regarding the party's 2028 flagbearer contest.
Issued pursuant to Order 51, Rule 3 of the High Court Rules 2007, the subpoena mandates that Kamara show cause why contempt proceedings should not be instituted against him.
The court clarified that the allegations remain subject to review and no final determination has been made prior to hearing the respondent's submission.
