Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng has been ordered by the Judicial Conduct Committee (JCC) to retract and apologise for his comments made on the Israeli and Palestinian conflict.

Mogoeng came under severe criticism following his remarks during a webinar with The Jerusalem  newspaper, where he lamented the South African government’s policy regarding the Israel-Palestinian conflict and said that it would have greater influence if it displayed a more balanced approach.

When asked to apologise, Mogoeng said  “even if fifty million people can march every day for the next ten years for me to retract and apologise for what I said, I will not do it.”

Pro-Palestine South African organisation Africa 4 Palestine laid a complaint about Mogoeng’s comments.

The JCC also found that Mogoeng involved himself in political activity and controversy.
