Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi today established a new, alternative judicial body outside the Supreme Court building in Jerusalem, calling it a 'genuine High Court of Justice,' according to a source affiliated with the Israeli right. This follows Karhi's earlier call to abolish the existing High Court.
Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi on Monday inaugurated an alternative judicial body outside the Supreme Court in Jerusalem, naming it a 'true High Court of Justice.' The move follows his earlier call, reported earlier today by The Zioneer, to abolish Israel's existing High Court of Justice and replace it with a system based on the will of the people and their elected representatives. Karhi's latest action marks a direct physical protest against the current court, with the establishment of a separate, symbolic court adjacent to the original building. No official government or judicial response has been reported yet, and the status of this alternative body remains unclear.
