So the Mubarak regime has had to use various ploys to neutralize the judge’s union. One was to stretch the definition of ‘the judiciary’ to include thousands of loyal government employees who have law degrees but no experience on the bench. This boxes in the true judges, for if they protest by boycotting their supervisory duties, the task will fall once more to police from the infamous Ministry of the Interior.
所以穆巴拉克政权不得不使用不同的策略来压制法官工会。其中一招就是强行扩展“司法”的定义，使其包括数千名拥有法律学位但却没有司法经验的忠诚的政府雇员。这使真正的法官们左右为难。因为如果他们以抵制监督职责的方式来抗议，那么这个任务就会落入臭名昭著的内政部手中。
