Ghanaian citizen Alfred Ababio Kumi who has called for the dissolution of the five-member committee probing the removal of embattled Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo, has insisted that renowned private legal practitioner Thaddeus Sory indeed met with judges who are members of the committee.
Kumi, a former parliamentary aspirant on the ticket of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has cited allegations of misconduct in his petition, which he believes could compromise the integrity of the inquiry.
According to Kumi, on May 15, 2025, following the committee's inaugural sitting, Justices Gabriel Scott Pwamang and Samuel Adibu-Asiedu, along with Supreme Court Justice Yonny Kulendi, were allegedly seen dining with Thaddeus Sory, counsel for petitioner Daniel Ofori, at Santoku Restaurant in Accra's Airport Residential Area.
He claimed the group was overheard discussing matters related to the petition. "The meeting between Justices Pwamang, Kulendi, and Asiedu with Thaddeus Sory has clearly tainted the integrity of the process and reduced public confidence in the proceedings," Kumi's petition, as quoted by AsaaseRadio.com, stated.
