The government has dismissed claims that the selection of Adu Lounge as the venue for suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo's disciplinary hearing carries historical or political symbolism.

He labeled any such interpretations by the Justice as disingenuous and undesirable.

Government spokesperson, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, clarified that the facility was chosen solely for its suitability, not as a deliberate nod to its past associations.

The Adu Lodge, where the hearing is taking place, has long been known for its controversial role in Ghana's history, specifically its link to the abduction and assassination of three High Court judges and a retired military officer during the early years of Ghana's Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC) regime.
