NDC’s interest aligns with the Constitution – Srem-Sai defends push for speedy trials

Justice Srem-Sai said the interpretation that vacation judges cannot conduct trials was impractical because a judge assigned to a vacation court also has cases in his or her substantive court.“Whatever the Chief Justice has done, at least the evidence shows that it is the standard practice for decades, for so many years, in this country that during vacation judges sit, vacation courts are appointed,” he said.

Speaking on Joy News’ PM Express, Justice Srem-Sai rejected claims that the government was seeking to manipulate the legal vacation to secure favourable outcomes in cases involving former government officials.
