A cornerstone was laid Monday morning for an alternative judicial initiative called the 'Supreme Court of Justice for Truth', outside the High Court of Justice building in Jerusalem. Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi participated in the ceremony, according to reports. The event was preceded by reports that a related hearing would be held at the High Court (Bagatz). The initiative has been controversial, with critics viewing it as a challenge to the authority of the existing judiciary. The Zioneer reported Sunday that the ceremony and a possible High Court discussion were expected.
