Suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo reinforced her legal battle on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, by filing a suit at the Supreme Court in an attempt to halt the ongoing hearing targeted at her removal from office.
The action directly challenges her suspension and the ongoing proceedings related to three petitions for her removal.
Justice Torkornoo's extensive suit seeks 16 reliefs from the nation's highest court.
Her legal challenge is directed against the Attorney General, who acts as counsel for President , and the members of the five-member panel constituted by the President to investigate the petitions as mandated by the 1992 Constitution.
