The Supreme Court has ordered investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas to appear in court without his face mask and face Kwesi Nyantakyi.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday morning ruled that the investigative journalist appears in court without his mask to testify in the case with the former Ghana Fa President.
This ruling from the supreme court comes after it nullified an earlier ruling by an Accra High Court giving Anas Aremeyaw Anas permission to testify in camera.
The court presided over by Justice Baffoe-Bonnie on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, said the High Court’s order that granted Anas the special privilege lacked legal foundation.
The renowned investigative journalist is expected to testify as a prosecution witness in the criminal case entitled Republic v Kwesi Nyantakyi & Another. It follows his undercover investigation titled ‘Number 12’, which showed Nyantakyi, a former president of the Ghana Football Association taking bribes.
