Courts must go beyond acquittals and demand accountability – Transparency International

" While acknowledging that the Court of Appeal found the criminal evidence insufficient, Ms Addah said that the judges could still have recommended measures to strengthen accountability within public institutions.

Speaking on JoyNews' Newsfile on Saturday, August 1, during a discussion on the Court of Appeal's decision to acquit and discharge Sedina Tamakloe, Ms Addah said that although the court had performed its judicial role, it missed an important opportunity to address broader concerns about public accountability.

Ms Addah questioned how public officials could procure buses that were never requested by the intended beneficiaries and face no consequences when the vehicles were left unused and deteriorated.
