Kerala High Court judge Justice Sophy Thomas recuses from hearing election petition since she voted from same constituency

When the matter came up before the bench which usually considers election petitions, the single-judge informed the Court that she cannot hear the matter as she had also voted in the said election.

In this case, I want to recuse myself since I was also a voter in this election from Thrippunithura constituency. So I am addressing the Chief Justice and placing the file before him,” Justice Thomas said.

The matter will be placed before the Chief Justice so that he can re-assign the case as per the roster.
