Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has suspended the Chief Justice, Dr. Ahmed Abdulla Didi and Judge Adam Mohamed Abdulla by 60 days and filed a motion at the parliament to dismiss them from their position at the Supreme Court.

A statement issued by the JSC noted that the judges were suspended following investigations into disciplinary issues of the judges.

"The investigative committee of the JSC has found the Chief Justice Dr. Ahmed Abdulla Didi and Judge Adam Mohamed responsible of carrying out acts that violated the set standards for judges in article 154 (B) of the constitution, leading the JSC to recommend to the Parliament for their dismissal," the statement byJSC added.

Both judges have previously said that there was no basis for them to be answerable to the JSC and had excused themselves from the investigation.
