The Attorney General and Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) are seeking to overturn court orders that halted the implementation of a section of the new Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act 2025. They argue that their application to vacate the suspension should be heard before other petitions challenging the law.

• The suspension orders were issued ex parte, and petitioners failed to serve respondents with submissions.
• Reuben Kigame and Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) filed the initial case.
• The Court of Appeal is already addressing similar constitutional challenges to Section 27 of the Act.
• The High Court is asked to stay or vacate conservatory orders issued on October 22.
• The matters are scheduled to be mentioned on November 5 for further directions.
