The Disciplinary Committee probing the allegations of corruption leveled against some judges and members of the judiciary by investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas has suspended sitting for today.
The committee, according to Starr News’ court correspondent, Wilberforce Asare, suspended siting to enable them respond to the various suits leveled against them by the judges who were indicted in the video expose’.
The plaintiff, Aremeyaw Anas, has therefore been discharged by the committee.
The accused judges argue that the committee has erred in procedure by hearing the matters in spite of the pending writs over the same matter.
Meanwhile, twenty-two magistrates and judges who were also implicated in the scandal have already been suspended by the Judicial Council. The chief Justice has promised swift action and sanctions in the matter.
