The People's Forum has sent an open letter to Chief Justice, Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie, touching on guarding the independence of the Judiciary.
In the letter, signed by Dennis Miracles Aboagye as Team Lead for the group, they raised a concern about what they said was the "weaponisation of bail conditions [by the courts] and the chilling effect on dissenting voices under the Mahama administration."
secute me? Or will you hold the sacred oath to protect me with the laws of the Republic?"
They said there was a "growing and documented pattern of concern about the treatment of dissenting voices, political opponents, and critics under the current administration."
There said there has been "credible public concerns" about the said weaponisation of bail conditions by the courts but that has "not adequately been addressed" and that bail was currently seen as being used to "punish political opponents."
