Breaking: SSS Releases All The Detained Judges

The State Security Service has released all
the judges arrested during a nationwide
sweep between Friday and Saturday,
PREMIUM TIMES can report.
Sources in the agency said all the seven
judges were released on self-recognition.
“They were all released on bail yesterday
(Sunday) on self recognition,” one of our
sources said.
“They reported this morning (Monday) and
they have all gone back home. They will be
coming back tomorrow. And everything
went very procedurally well and civil.
“They were released on bail on self
recognition based on the fact that given
their standing in the society, they cannot
run away. They were instructed that they
should come back today by 10am.
“They did report for investigation this
morning and they have gone back home.
And the investigation continues and
preparation to charge them to court
continued.”
The source added, “Also, action was sequel
to lack of cooperation by National Judicial
Council. Such as refusal by the NJC to
allow the affected persons to be questioned
by the DSS. Investigation started some
seven months ago, precisely in April 2016.”
The crackdown has continued to generate
mixed reactions across the country.
