Seychelles
The Tribunal set up to investigate the Chief Justice found
that "the evidence, either taken piecemeal or as
a whole, does not disclose any misconduct or inappropriate
conduct on the part of the Chief Justice. To the contrary
the only conclusion reasonably open on that evidence is
that she acted with complete propriety on all the occasions
called into question. It follows that no action should be
taken by the President under Article 134 of the Constitution
in respect of the office of Chief Justice"
