The editor is responsible for journal accountability and content based on procedures and policies in place to maintain the quality and integrity of the journal.

Editorial independence and integrity are an important part of the responsibility to make fair and impartial decisions. This includes separating decision-making from commercial and political considerations and ensuring that manuscripts are reviewed for scientific purity.

In this case, the article will be deleted and replaced with a statement that the article was removed for legal reasons.
