    His country had corruption!

    Im sure there is a better way but your acting like having tribunals makes you authoritarian.

    It doesn’t.

      Statists using tribunals to try other statists is the use of state authority and the use of the state’s monopoly on the legitimate use of force. If “Authoritarian” means anything at all then using the power of the state to prosecute people who are doing state stuff in ways you don’t like is authoritarian.
