Judge President Selby Mbenenge was found guilty of gross misconduct by the Judicial Service Commission following a complaint by Andiswa Mengo.
Eastern Cape Judge President Selby Mbenenge has achieved a significant legal breakthrough in his ongoing battle against impeachment after the Pretoria High Court granted him an urgent interdict, preventing Parliament from moving forward with proceedings against him.
This ruling serves as a temporary safeguard for Mbenenge while he challenges the findings of the Judicial Service Commission (JSC), which deemed him guilty of gross misconduct.
The allegations, primarily revolving around claims from his secretary of sexual harassment, have cast a shadow over Mbenenge's esteemed judicial career.
The court order effectively suspends any impeachment actions by Parliament until the legal review regarding the JSC's verdict is resolved.
