Renowned private legal practitioner, Thaddeus Sory, has refuted the allegations contained in a petition submitted by a Ghanaian citizen, Alfred Ababio Kumi, calling for the dissolution of the five-member committee probing the removal of the embattled Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo.
The petitioner and former parliamentary aspirant on the ticket of the (NPP), Alfred Ababio Kumi, cited allegations of misconduct in his petition, which he believes could compromise the integrity of the inquiry.
Kumi alleged that on May 15, 2025, after the committee's inaugural sitting, Justices Pwamang and Adibu-Asiedu, along with Supreme Court Justice Yonni Kulendi, were seen dining with Thaddeus Sory, counsel for petitioner Daniel Ofori, at Santoku Restaurant in Accra's Airport Residential Area.
He claimed they were overheard discussing matters related to the petition. "The meeting between Justices Pwamang, Kulendi, and Asiedu with Thaddeus Sory clearly has tainted the integrity of the process and reduces public confidence in the process," a report by asaaseradio.com quoted Kumi's petition.
