Tripoli – The Supreme Judicial Council stated that supporting the judiciary’s unity and independence is a national duty. It affirmed its commitment to the judiciary’s unity. The council is the sole legitimate representative of judicial bodies.
The council issued a statement yesterday, Friday. It expressed regret over recent events in the judicial arena. Specifically, it noted attempts by some parties to undermine judicial unity and independence. These attempts used constitutional pretexts. Their aim was to replace the Supreme Judicial Council with a “Dharar Council.” The council believes these goals are narrow, political, and personal. Such actions would confiscate the powers of all other authorities.
The council added that it showed extreme restraint. This was to preserve judicial unity and act responsibly for the nation’s best interest. It faced persistent obstinacy from those with specific objectives. They aimed to impose a new reality. The council stated this would only disrupt the institution. This occurs during a sensitive and critical period for the nation. Unity is most vital at this time.
The Supreme Judicial Council affirmed its role. It will remain the sole legitimate representative of judicial bodies. It will not abandon its commitment to the judiciary’s unity and its members. This stance holds firm under all pressures. The council will disregard any decisions from other parties. It will not comply with those aiming to undermine its unity. Such attempts involve invalid decisions. History records the clear public stances of all judicial body members. They have shown commitment to their institution’s unity. They demonstrated awareness of those attempting to divide it. The council will not relinquish its adherence to the unity of this esteemed institution.
