In terms of Section 177 of the Constitution, a judge may only be removed if the Judicial Service Commission finds – through a tribunal inquiry – that they suffer from incapacity, are guilty of gross misconduct, and/or is grossly incompetent. The National Assembly will then debate the JSC’s findings and vote on the removal of either one or both judges. A two-thirds (or 267 of 400 MPs) majority resolution is required to remove a judge from office, and the president must carry it out.
