An alleged friendship between a High Court Judge and Senate Speaker Amason Kingi was one of the fresh claims raised by Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua to push for recusal of the judges from his impeachment case.

Gachagua also cites an appointment of another judge's spouse to a government body as another claim that he says, should inform the judges recusal from the case.
