Judicial Service Commission (JSC)’s investigative meeting into the misconduct allegations against Supreme Court Justice Abdulla Didi, has begun.

The probe is being held in public, at Dharubaaruge in capital Malé City, following a request from the justice.

A number of people are in attendance, and the meeting is being aired by TV channels; which is a first for the country.

The four members on Didi's defence team are Mohamed Saleem, Adam Shameem, Adam Asif and former Vice President Mohamed Jameel Ahmed.

JSC's investigative committee comprises of members Ali Shameem, Hisaan Hussain, Masthooru Husny, Mohamed Easafulhu and Attorney General Ibrahim Riffath.

JSC, on Tuesday, revealed that it is investigating five misconduct allegations against the Supreme Court justice.

He was suspended on June 12, over a bribery allegation.

While Supreme Court has since issued a stay order in the case, JSC decided to uphold its initial decision. The court has since issued an order saying that any decision against its first order “is invalid.”

The court, on Monday, released another order stating that any action taken against a justice, regarding a ruling made “is unconstitutional.”

While the parliament has passed to support the Commission’s decision on the matter, it accepted a motion “to determine if justices meet standards” on Wednesday.

Justice Didi is accused of taking a USD one million bribe to convict former President Mohamed Nasheed is 2015, which is to have been deposited to his wife’s dollar account in Malaysia. The deputy ambassador to Malaysia has since been dismissed from the post.
