"content": "You will be worried if you look at the composition of the JSC. If you also look at the members of the JSC, you will find that some members who appeared in the case and are imbued in these allegations of corruption have been sitting in that Commission. This is the case and yet they stand there today to arbitrate and make decisions regarding their employees. These judges are employees of the JSC. If one of the members of this Commission also appears before this tribunal, courts and the Supreme Court and represents a client and then crosses to sit in the JSC to arbitrate where allegations of corruption have been made with regard to one of the judges, I submit that that is manifestation of conflict of interest. I am surprised that when these matters were being arbitrated before that JSC nobody really told themselves “by my position, the way I have acted in the past, by my appearances for some of the people who may be adversely mentioned as witnesses even before the JSC and the tribunal that might be put in place, then it is proper for me to step aside.” They did not. They appeared on television and pretended to have a saintly mien, that they are good arbitrators of matters in our country. I am worried."
