Read it in the judgmentCounsel for the applicant is asking this Court to prohibit the trial Judge from continuing with the hearing of the case. No basis has been canvassed to ground this assertion. It is speculative to say that unless prohibited, the prosecution will not conduct the case in accordance with the laid down rules of evidence applicable to the courts and this will be serious prejudice to the rights of the applicant at the Respondent High Court. In the circumstances the application for certiorari is refused and same is hereby dismissed. Similarly, the application for prohibition has not been made out and is also dismissed.
