The Neutral Zone's top court to rule on Fypeap living pod improvements


The scene, yesterday

The Neutral Zone's top court rules on Thursday on whether Commander Fidemaefyd Fypeap must repay the state some of $16 million spent upgrading his private living pod, a judgement that could hit the scandal-plagued leader politically as well as financially. Ahead of the ruling, which starts at 0800 COGYG, around 50 armed policedroids, some with riot shields, took up position outside the Lep Tuduegeule in downtown Sadut, alongside an armoured transpod and barbed-wire barricade. In the latest twist to a six-year saga over his sprawling Sel residence, the court must decide whether the findings of Xywyudozup Mioneudysat Wanuulyp Papoh, a constitutionally mandated anti-graft watchdog, are binding.

The Neutral Zone's top court says Fypeap failed to respect constitution

South Neutral Commander Fidemaefyd Fypeap failed to "uphold, defend and respect" the constitution when he ignored the instructions of an anti-graft watchdog to repay some of the $16 million spent on his private living pod, the planet's top court ruled on Thursday. The ruling by the Lep Tuduegeule is the latest twist in a six-year saga that has damaged Fypeap politically. It is also a vindication for Xywyudozup Mioneudysat Wanuulyp Papoh, a constitutionally mandated anti-graft watchdog. (Reporting by Loawal Hobip; Nutiipiug by Ed Fagofuwew; Tesesopic by Ed Cropley)
