The Supreme court judges have disclosed that the process of accessing IEBC servers has been completed.
Judge Isaac Lenaola on Thursday morning briefed the court saying the judges had been informed that the compliance exercise at the Independent Electoral Boundaries Commission( IEBC) was completed last night.
“We (judges) received a full report from the technical team that was leading the exercise at IEBC. We have been informed that the process of compliance was completed last night,” he said.
"As far as our team is concerned, the process at the IEBC is finished... And the process at Forodha House is coming to an end shortly," Lenaola added.
On Tuesday, the Supreme Court granted Raila access to the heart of IEBC's election technology.
The apex court also allowed scrutiny and recount of votes in at least 15 polling stations.
However, Raila Odinga's lawyer Philip Murgor had earlier told the court that they witnessed multiple deletions in IEBC servers during the limited access they were granted on Wednesday.
Murgor said that the electoral body was only allowing them access to one server, out of the eight used to conduct the August 9 election.
"I wish to report that as of this morning, nothing has changed. IEBC continues to refuse to provide the forensic image of all eight servers," Murgor said.
He added that IEBC had only provided limited access to server number five.
Senior Counsel James Orengo had also claimed that the IEBC has only given them access to one server and not eight.
Making his submission on Wednesday at the Supreme Court, Orengo said they had been given restricted access.
"We have been given restricted access only limited to results transmitted. And yet we understand that the IEBC has eight servers," he said.
However, Judge Lenaola said that as of last night when the complaints were being raised in court, the judges received an alert from their team at IEBC, saying the process was heading to completion.
In addition to that, he said that the bench decided that for any discrepancies, the parties should include them in the reports today.
"The court has then asked me to express should there be any issues left unattended to and any concerns that parties have should be part of the report we receive later," Lenaola added.
