The DA wants Judge President Hlophe to leave his duties
By Odette Ismail
The Democratic Alliance feel Western Cape Judge President John Hlophe must step down relating to the continuing outcome of a Judicial Service Commission (JSC) investigation into his conduct.
According to the Cape Times the DA states that it is not suitable for a judge to proceed in carrying out his duties while his conduct is in questioning. Justice spokesperson Len Joubert, said the Party’s Federal Council passed a resolution on the situation on Sunday.
The outcome of the resolution was that the JSC reacts faster on the allegations against Hlophe. Hlophe is alleged to have received R10 000 from April 2002 to March 2003, from Oasis Group holdings in Cape Town in the form of a ‘consultation tariff'.
