NPP communicator Dennis Miracles Aboagye has questioned the decision to allow only selected criminal cases to continue during the legal vacation, describing it as selective justice.
He argued that many criminal and civil cases have been pending for years, yet only a few have been chosen to proceed while the courts are on vacation.
“There is no way… you have a lot of cases in the court, a lot of criminal cases, a lot of civil cases. Some of them predate even 2020,” he said.
According to him, the decision to continue hearing only selected cases raises concerns about fairness.
“This year, you are going on legal vacation. You say that even though all of you are being tried in criminal cases, I have selected a few of you, and as for you, you can’t go and rest. You must go through the criminal procedure. That is selective justice,” he stated.
Mr Aboagye maintained that the justice system should apply its procedures consistently to all cases to maintain public confidence.
