Need change where SC rulings can be appealed: Yameen
Former President Abdulla Yameen, speaking at a People's National Front (PNF) rally, called for amendments to the judicial system, specifically to allow appeals against Supreme Court rulings. He criticized the Supreme Court's role as the final authority, arguing that the system needs change due to issues like lack of proper upbringing and moral character. Yameen also proposed changes to police investigations and criticized the 2008 Constitution. He mocked the Supreme Court's decision-making process, alleging that judges often simply support each other's opinions rather than independently deliberating. Yameen also criticized the appointment of judges, suggesting some reached the Supreme Court due to improper actions. The remarks come as the Supreme Court has scheduled a trial regarding the Aarah case against Yameen.
