"We urge people to desist from making such accusations as focus should be on the investigation," Dube says.
Dube also added the attack on the Chief Justice's office should be a concern for everybody and not a matter of ridicule.
The computers, containing information of various judges and judiciary officials, were stolen from the Chief Justice's Human Resources Department.
