Dear Madam Ambassador Michele J Sison,
I write to you as a member of the Maldives Judicial Service Commission 2009 to 2011, and as an advocate for rule of law and constitutional democratic government in the Maldives, to express my concern following the recent remarks attributed by the Maldives’ Judicial Service Commission to yourself, Madam Ambassador, in a statement published on the said Commission’s website on May 8, 2013.
The original statement in Dhivehi is to be found on http://jsc.gov.mv/2013/05/1561.
The Dhivehi statement claims that “Ambassador Michele J Sison approves of the functioning of the Maldives’ Judicial Service Commission”, and agrees the actions of the Commission are up to the “best possible standards”.
