Filistin Eylemi Davasında Yargıca Önyargı Suçlaması: 3 Bin Kişi Şikayetçi

Özet · AI üretimi

İngiltere'de Filistin Eylemi (Palestine Action) aktivistlerinin yargılandığı davada, Yargıç Johnson hakkında önyargı iddiasıyla 3 binden fazla kişinin imzaladığı bir şikayet dilekçesi sunuldu. Şikayette, yargıcın sanıklara ve Filistin davasına karşı 'kişisel husumet' beslediği ve bunun yargıç rolüyle bağdaşmadığı öne sürüldü. Sanıklar arasında Jordan Devlin, Leona Kamio, Charlotte Head, Fatema Rajwani ve Zoe Roger bulunuyor. Hukuk uzmanları ve avukatlar, yargıcın reddini talep ederken, olay Birleşik Krallık'ta siyasi hassasiyet taşıyan davalarda yargı tarafsızlığı tartışmalarını alevlendirdi. Filistin Eylemi grubu, İsrail'in politikalarını protesto etmek amacıyla doğrudan eylemler düzenliyor ve daha önce de benzer davalarda yargı sürecinin adilliği sorgulanmıştı. Dilekçe mahkemeye sunuldu ancak yargıcın çekilip çekilmeyeceği henüz bilinmiyor.

    Legal experts accuse Palestine Action judge of bias, lawyers demand recusal

    London, Birleşik Krallık

    Legal experts accuse Palestine Action judge of bias, lawyers demand recusal Katherine Hearst on Thu, 06/04/2026 - 19:46 A complaint signed by over 3,000 people accuses Justice Johnson of 'personal animosity towards the defendants and the Palestinian cause, incompatible with the role of a judge' The defendants from left to right: Jordan Devlin, Leona Kamio, Charlotte Head, Fatema Rajwani, Zoe Rogers, and Samuel Corner (Screengrab/X) Off Legal experts are among thousands who have signed a formal complaint accusing the presiding judge in a Palestine Action case of bias and discriminatory conduct. The complaint, which will be filed on Friday by the campaign group, Defend Our Juries (DOJ), with the Judicial Conduct Office, comes ahead of a hearing on Monday on the defendants’ application for the recusal of Justice Jeremy Johnson on the grounds of apparent bias and abuses of process. Charlotte Head, Leona Kamio, Samuel Corner and Fatema Rajwani risk facing sentencing as terrorists on 12 June, despite being convicted by a jury of criminal charges. The complaint, which has garnered over 3,000 signatures, including by lawyers, law professors, retired police officers and magistrates, alleges that throughout the two trials, Johnson “betrayed a loss of objectivity and a personal animosity towards the defendants and the Palestinian cause, incompatible with the role of a judge”. It alleges that Johnson’s bias was evident from the outset of the trial, when he decided to treat the defendants’ conscientious motivations for breaking into the factory - to destroy weapons that would be used by Israel to kill Palestinians - as an aggravating factor in their sentencing. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); In a preparatory ruling in March 2025, Johnson ruled that there appeared to be a “terrorist connection” in the case because the activists were attempting to influence the Israeli government by restricting their access to weapons. DOJ emphasised that this would be the first time in British legal history that protestors face sentencing as terrorists, without being convicted of terror offences or found guilty of intentional violence. The terrorism connection was kept secret from the jury and will be decided by Johnson at sentencing. The complaint said that the move puts the defendants’ actions on a par with Ahmed Hassan, the "Parsons Green bomber", who is the only other person to be sentenced on the basis of a terrorism connection, without being charged with a terrorist offence. Hassan was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2018 for a bomb which detonated on a tube train in London, injuring 51 people. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The statement said that by doing so, Johnson “reveals his loss of judgment and a discriminatory mindset towards the defendants”. 'Manipulating the law' In May, jurors at Woolwich Crown Court found the four guilty of criminal damage in connection with a raid on an Elbit Systems plant near Bristol on 6 August 2024. Two other activists, Jordan Devlin and Zoe Rogers, were cleared of the charges. Corner was additionally convicted of causing grievous bodily harm without intent for striking a police officer. The six had previously faced a months-long initial trial during which they were held on remand for up to 18 months, exceeding standard UK pre-trial custody time limits. They were acquitted by jurors of charges of aggravated burglary. Rajwani, Devlin and Rogers were also found not guilty of violent disorder charges, while the jury did not return a verdict on the same charge for the other three defendants. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Maud Dromgoole, a juror in the first trial, said that the application of the terrorism connection without the jury’s knowledge is not “in the spirit of letting the jury decide”. She added that the state was "manipulating the law" to make examples of the defendants.

It also pointed to Johnson’s failure to address public statements prejudicial to the defence ahead of the trial, including by former Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, as further evidence of his bias. Finally, the complaint argued that Johnson’s decision to remand the convicted activists back to prison, once they had already spent up to 18 months in prison, was “cruel and vindictive". The statement concluded that, taken together, these decisions “amount to a pattern of exceptional, biased and discriminatory conduct on the part of the judge”. “It should not be possible for observers to discern the political opinions of a judge. No rational observer, however, is left in any doubt regarding the political opinions of Mr Justice Johnson.” DOJ has announced a “mass act of civil disobedience” to coincide with the sentencing hearing at Woolwich Crown Court on 12 June.

    PPP leads GB poll tally despite crying foul

    • Preliminary count has PPP ahead on 10 seats; PML-N has upper hand in six constituencies • Independents carve out leads on five seats; PTI-aligned candidates set to claim two districts; MWM ahead in one race • PPP, PTI complain of widespread irregularities PEOPLE cast their votes at a polling station during the Gilgit-Baltistan elections.—Dawn GILGIT: The PPP appeared to be leading in the unofficial, early tallies for 24 seats of the Gilgit-Baltistan Legislative Assembly, even as political parties cried foul and levelled serious allegations of vote-rigging. The preliminary count from Sunday’s closely watched polls indicates the PPP is currently leading in 10 constituencies; with the PML-N ahead in six, and independent candidates holding the lead in five constituencies. Meanwhile, PTI-backed independent candidates, contesting without their party’s traditional electoral symbol, were ahead on two seats, while their ally, the Majlis Wahdat-i-Muslimeen, was leading the race in one constituency. According to unofficial and unverified results, shared by the Gilgit Baltistan Election Commission, PPP regional president Amjad Hussain is leading in GBA-1 (Gilgit), while former chief minister Hafiz Hafeezur Rehman of the PML-N is ahead in GBA-2 (Gilgit). PTI-backed independent Sohail Abbas is currently leading the GBA-3 (Gilgit) constituency. In Nagar, Muhammad Ali Akhtar is leading in GBA-4 and Zulfiqar Ali Murad is ahead in GBA-5. Across the Skardu district and neighbouring areas, the PPP was also leading in five additional seats: Syed Tauqeer Mehdi in GBA-7 (Skardu), Fida Muha­mmad Nashad in GBA-9 (Skardu), Nasir Ali Khan in GBA-10 (Rondu), Iqbal Hassan in GBA-11 (Kharmang), and Imran Nadeem in GBA-12 (Shigar). The MWM’s sole lead is in GBA-8 (Skardu), where Muha­mmad Kazim is ahead. The PML-N demonstrates concentrated support in the Astore district, where Rana Farman Ali and Rana Muhammad Farooq are leading in GBA-13 and GBA-14, respectively. The party is also ahead through Kifayat ur Rehman in GBA-18 (Tangir), Abdul Jahan in GBA-20 (Ghizer), and Muhammad Ibrahim in GBA-22 (Ghanche). Independent candidates are currently leading across Diamer, Yasin, and Ghanche. Muhammad Dilpazir and Imam Malik are ahead in GBA-15 and GBA-16 in Diamer. In Yasin, Aman Ali is leading in GBA-21, while independents Anwar and Asad Shafiq are holding leads in GBA-23 and GBA-24 in Ghanche. Rounding out the preliminary results, PTI-backed independent Naik Nam Karim is leading in GBA-6 (Hunza). In Darel, PPP’s Muhammad Naseem is ahead in GBA-17, and his party colleague Syed Jalal is leading in GBA-19 in Ghizer. Rigging allegations Despite their early lead, the PPP was among the parties most vocal in their complaints of alleged irregularities and rigging. Both the PPP and the PTI separately accused officials of delaying the release of official paperwork used to verify results at the polling-station level. PPP Secretary General Nayyar Hussain Bukhari alleged that presiding officers refused to provide Form-45, the official vote count prepared at each polling station. “We have contacted the chief election commissioner and informed him about the matter,” Bukhari said in a statement. PPP spokesperson Sha­zia Marri called the delay unacceptable, adding that altered voter lists and shifted polling stations indicated systemic rigging. The PPP, which is a coalition partner in the federal government, alleged that the Balachi polling station in Astore-II’s Bunji area was relocated from a roadside to a hilltop overnight, prompting residents to block the Gilgit-Skardu Road in protest. Concurrently, the PTI, whose candidates ran as independents after the party lost its electoral symbol, also alleged manipulation after initially claiming its candidates were ahead in several constituencies. In a statement, the party said its candidates were leading until 7pm, after which “suspicious results” began to emerge, including reported turnouts above 80 per cent and individual ballot boxes containing “700 to 800 votes”. It further said, “This is a blot on the entire electoral process and its transparency.” The PTI also alleged that its polling agents were not being issued Form-46, terming it a “clear violation of election laws that has further intensified fears of result manipulation”. It said reports had emerged of members of other parties being caught red-handed with fake ballot papers in multiple areas, including Nagar. “This rigging is part of a well-planned and systematic conspiracy,” the party has claimed. It alleged that before polling, voter lists were tampered with in specific constituencies, police and administration were used to change delimitation and polling schemes, and opposition candidates and workers were “systematically harassed and pressurised”. The PTI warned that any attempt to manipulate the results would have serious consequences. “PTI will employ every constitutional, legal, and democratic avenue to protect the votes of its supporters. We demand that authentic results from all polling stations be released immediately, Form-45 and Form-46 be provided to every candidate without delay, a swift inquiry be conducted into suspicious polling stations with strict action against those responsible, and the Election Commission fulfil its constitutional duty by ensuring complete transparency,” the party stated. The sharp accusations came after officials earlier presented a more positive picture of the voting process. Gilgit-Baltistan’s chief election commissioner, Raja Shahbaz Khan, visited about 10 polling stations across Gilgit city and said security arrangements were satisfactory. He also noted a high turnout among women, with 396,937 registered female voters in the region. Caretaker interior minister Sajid Ali Baig similarly described the day as generally peaceful, though he acknowledged minor irregularities and said authorities had responded quickly. The election was held after a four-month delay attributed to harsh winter weather. In total, 396 candidates contested the vote, including 266 independents and eight women, competing for 24 of the assembly’s 33 seats. Officials said 963,034 registered voters were eligible to cast ballots across 10 districts. The highly competitive race featured 23 candidates from the PPP, 22 from the PML-N, and a 22-candidate alliance between the PTI and Majlis Wahdat-i-Muslimeen. Attention has now turned to the outcome and the likely contest for the chief ministership. Among the leading contenders are the PPP’s regional president, Amjad Hussain, contesting from GBA-1, and the PML-N’s regional president, Hafiz Hafeezur Rehman, contesting from GBA-2 Published in Dawn, June 8th, 2026
