Moseneke appointed new Constitutional Court judge

President Thabo Mbeki has appointed Judge Dikgang Moseneke to the Constitutional Court with immediate effect.

Judge Moseneke is set to replace Judge Johan Kriegler who retired on Friday. Judge Kriegler was appointed to the Constitutional Court in 1994. President Mbeki said he was confident that Judge Moseneke would carry out his Constitutional Court functions with distinction.

Prior to his new appointment, Judge Moseneke was a judge at the Pretoria High Court. Three other judges were short listed for the post, Judge Ben du Plessis, Judge Kathy Satchwell and Judge Lewis Skweyiya.
