Civil society organizations in Venezuela are calling for transparency and public participation in the upcoming selection of justices for the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ). The groups, focused on human rights and democracy, argue that appointments should be based on professional merit, legal experience, independence, and ethical integrity, rather than political affiliation. They emphasize the need to avoid politically motivated choices that could compromise the judiciary’s impartiality. The organizations are advocating for a more open and accountable process to ensure the legitimacy of the new justices. This demand comes amid ongoing concerns about the politicization of Venezuela’s judicial system. The groups believe a fair selection process is crucial for upholding the rule of law and protecting citizens’ rights. They are urging authorities to consider their recommendations for a more transparent and merit-based system.
