Justice minister: If judge colluded with investigator, she’ll be fired

Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked says she’s waiting for a final report on the alleged collusion between a judge and an investigator in Case 4000 before making any decisions.

The authorities have questioned both and will submit their conclusions later this evening or tomorrow, Shaked tells reporters in the Knesset.

If they find the Channel 10 report to be true, “she won’t remain a judge,” she says.

“If necessary I will convene the judicial appointments committee and we will exercise our powers of impeachment,” Shaked says.
