Lawyer Victoria Bright has criticised suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo over her recent press conference.
According to her, the Chief Justice's address gave the impression that she wanted the Ghanaian public to be the judge and jury in her ongoing case.
Speaking in an interview on JoyNews on Saturday, June 28,2025, she stated that Justice Torkornoo's public commentary on the Article 146 proceedings meant to be conducted in camera could be seen as a breach of constitutional provisions. "She went outside the sanctity of the proceedings and addressed Ghanaians…it sounded like she wanted to put her case before the public and have the public act as judge and jury.
I'm not really in favour of that," she said.
