They even disgustingly disregarded constitutional immunities for Justices and included legal opinions expressed by the Associate Justice as grounds for impeachment. The current impeachment trial is designed to clear the Supreme Court of any vote that could go against the ruling party in subsequent elections. The records show that accused bought real property in 1997 when he was not a member of the Supreme Court. Here, we will not support any effort to remove an Associate Justice because of his opinion expressed in the exercise of his official duties. Finally, it is worth emphasizing that the massive condemnation of the impeachment trial is not a product of love for Associate Justice Kabineh Ja’neh.
