The Supreme Court has scheduled Wednesday, May 28, 2025, to hear an injunction application filed by suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo, seeking to halt proceedings by a five-member committee investigating petitions for her removal from office.
The interlocutory injunction, filed on May 21, 2025, aims to restrain the committee, constituted by President , from continuing its work until the case is fully resolved.
Chief Justice Torkornoo is also requesting the apex court to bar two of its own justices, Gabriel Scott Pwamang and Samuel Kwame Adibu-Asiedu, from participating in the hearings, citing concerns over impartiality.
In her affidavit, she argued that Justice Pwamang had previously adjudicated cases involving Daniel Ofori, one of the petitioners, and should not be part of a panel reviewing a petition to which he is a party.
