The Judicial Service Commission committee that is investigating Supreme Court Justice Abdulla Didi has decided to recommend that he be dismissed.
The committee’s decision must first be approved by the 10-member JSC before it can be sent to parliament.
Didi, who is accused of bribery and corruption, will be given 30 days to respond to the investigative committee’s report.
The Supreme Court justice is accused of regularly taking bribes, releasing criminal suspects in return for favours and seeking government job opportunities for members of his family, including his wife, the former deputy ambassador to Malaysia.
