Facts
The applicant was the Executive Secretary of Baraza Kuu La Waislam Wa Tanzania (BAKWATA) but was removed from office without having been afforded the opportunity of a hearing. He sought an order of certiorari to quash the decision.
Held:
(i) An order of certiorari could lie against private bodies provided the body discharged a public function.
(ii) Judicial review would be confined to the decisions of BAKWATA which pertained to the performance of a legal function: its decision on matters in respect of the domestic relationship between it and its officers would not be subject to review.
