The Supreme Court, under the leadership of Acting Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie, has convened a newly constituted panel to hear an injunction suit challenging the removal process of suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Sackey Torkornoo.
The panel hearing the case includes Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie, Justice Henrietta Mensah Bonsu, Justice Yonny Kulendi, Justice Amadu Tanko, and Justice Ernest Gaewu.
During proceedings, former Attorney General Godfred Yeboah Dame, representing petitioner Vincent Ekow Assafuah, raised an objection to the reconstitution of the panel.
Dame argued that Justice Baffoe-Bonnie, now presiding over the case, has a direct stake in the outcome and should not lead the proceedings.
