Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng “undermined and failed to show respect for the constitutionally ordained separation of powers. He elected to criticise the official position of the state and put forward his own views.”

The committee said: “It is important that those utterances must be unreservedly retracted and withdrawn to return and maintain the public image of the judiciary to its rightful place.”

“Did Israel take away our land or the land of Africa? Did Israel take our mineral wealth? We’ve got to move from a position of principle here.” It was established that his utterance started political controversy and that he used his prestige in the judicial office to advance his own private interest or the interests of other parties.

Mogoeng’s response was that his Biblical obligation to love and pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Israel was not an expression of a view on Zionism, which was an issue in the Masuku case.The chief justice argued that in the same webinar he also declared his love for Palestine and Palestinians, and asserted that the complaints had deliberately left that portion of his statement out.

He better have a decent wifi connection to the heavens. Can't afford to see incorrect signs.

Perhaps what should be at the centre is full understanding and balance between constitutional bill of rights of persons VS what can be termed political correctness, the Justice as a person also has a freedom to free speech, thus no need for any apology for what her belief in.

I don't know what he said but I am assuming it was in favor of Israel If he had something nasty to say about Israel we would not even have heard about it 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱 VIVA ISRAEL

JCC e paletswe ke judge Hlope le di shinanegang, CJ o bua, ka thapelo it's a big issue, CJ tell them what law have you broken? That you are compelled to apologise ? I guess zero, so no APOLOGY SA.

Bitcoin is real only when you meet the right account manager to instruct you and guide you Since I met Jasonmac101 my life has really turn around because of his skills in investing bitcoin with an original broker now I can afford what I couldn't few months ago

I recommend that the Chief Justice does not apologise or retract his statement. ConCourtSA The JCC Is in contravention of the Constitution. They are also a Zuma RET tool to discredit an upstanding and highly respected judge.

What about freedom of thought and speech..

If I was one of SA judges who believe in Islam, after what Mogoeng said, I would make a public statement stating that I believe Sharia Law would end all South Africa's problems. I'd then sit back and watch the hypocrisy from those currently defending Mogoeng's freedom of speech.

He must be ashamed of himself of trying to praying against vaccines while thousands were dying in his own country truly misusing his position as Chief Justice

I gave him 7 days to weed out the cancer in his judiciary 😏 come Monday...!

Tell the judicial conduct to go hell

A ka seke, niks!!!

Lmao the Minister and President of the ANC can go around saying all Hoola Baloo in personal capacity... With state resources 😂. But they are never held account as State Representatives... Now I look at this and I'm amazed aswell...

Yho hayi mabayeke uTata wabantu...He is good at his job so what's this Mafuthana about now HayboTyhini🤷

UJehova UNkulunkulu wakho makabe nawe

He protected the unprotectable judges from the corruption they engaged themselves in, now they are targeting him. Is it possible that he's going to jail for 2 years with ubaba for fighting for their rights?

the constitutionally ordained separation of powers. and yet the ANC continues to rot the state & its operations in favour of its own. How many years has the anc separated the state from its political functions. Yet the hypocrisy here seems he undermined & failed. 27yrs democracy

So if the official position of the state, if ethically right or not, must be supported by a sworn CJ? VoetsekANC

DON'T APOLOGIZE CHIEF.

because he has his own views

He was expressing his own views, as he has a democratic right to do. I hope he sticks to his guns.

He is well within his rights to criticise a foreign state in his personal capacity. In related news, why is John Hlope not in prison?

Must a judge be silent when the state is wrong?

You must not now to Rupert,, instead reveal the R6000000000 saga and expose the capture of the Judiciary

The whole issue is about politics vs region, the former triumph over the latter.

Separation of powers is a thing now? In her State Capture Report ThuliMadonsela3 trampled over the concept in every which way it can be defined and interpreted, and people insisted she did the right thing. Today Separation of Powers is injected to serve a flimsy argument?

It seems that Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng will exit the apex court the same way he was selected by disgraced former president Jacob Zuma to assume its leadership: surrounded by controversy.

Kriegler stucked his racist nose in a matter involving a Judge.

His only mistake was speaking against the do called 'vaccine'.

The state's position isn't always the right one.

Freedom of speech, expression, choice. Personal Freedom.
