Chief Justice’s comments could affect ongoing cases – Ishaq Ibrahim
Speaking to Isaac Addae on Morning Starr on Starr FM, Ishaq Ibrahim argued that the Chief Justice, as the head of Ghana’s judiciary, is expected to maintain strict impartiality because parties in legal disputes ultimately depend on the courts to dispense justice.
According to Ishaq Ibrahim, such comments could create the impression that the Chief Justice has already formed an opinion about parties whose cases may come before the judiciary.
New Patriotic Party (NPP) Legal Directorate member Ishaq Ibrahim has raised concerns that comments by the Chief Justice on matters of national interest could affect public confidence in the fairness of ongoing court cases.
