Stop attacking Constitutional Court

Politicians and the media should cease their attacks on the Constitutional Court and its judges with respect to the so-called Mečiar amnesties, said Constitutional Court Chair Ivetta Macejková on Monday. Macejková insisted that judges of the court make decisions in an unbiased and independent fashion. A number of Opposition politicians recently drew attention to the fact that some court judges were nominees of Vladimir Mečiar and thus face a conflict of interest vis-a-vis the scrapping of Mečiar's amnesties. The Constitutional Court chair pointed to the oath of office taken by every judge of the Constitutional Court to preside over cases to the best of their knowledge and beliefs in an independent and unbiased manner and to defend principles of the rule of law. "We meet the promise to the fullest extent," she said.
