I feel angry at hearing that the judges are fighting against the showing of the video. Have they forgotten how much injustice they have meted out to people? Some people have gone to prison and brought shame and disgrace to themselves and their families when in deed they are innocent! Some have lost out in suits just because the crooked judge took a bribe. And such corrupt judges are fighting hard for the video not to be shown?

But knowing Anas, the video will be shown.

According to that Mr. Obuor, chief attorney or whatever, Anas lured the (actually innocent?) Judges into the act of taking bribes? Just like a Devil tempting Jesus to turn stones into bread?

How about just a little bit of honesty, Mr. Obuor? Yes Honesty, in the size of one grain of sand, to explain how Ajet Nassem acquitted Woyome.
How can Woyome be set free by this Judge just because the Prosecutor did not call Woyome's accomplice in the crime as a 'prosecution witness'?
No, we cannot prove beyond doubt, that the Vehicle Ajet collected was the price for Woyomes freedom, and Ajet would be a big fool to tell the truth, or even talk about it.
What did Martin Amidu waste his time and energy for?

Mr. Obuor sees it as a legal right for Judges to make use of the weaknesses and legal loopholes to pass judgement against the very Nation that is offering them their daily bread.
Must the majority of Ghanaians be treated like non-humans, or worse just because they are not members of the government or judiciary?

This clique of so called elites has lost every right to exist. They are nothing but a bunch of dishonest, semi-qualified lawyers who have been appointed, not on basis of integrity, but the filthy corrupt system we wrongly define as democracy.

It is high time these wig sporting lawyers and judges got their wigs confiscated and thrown into a bonfire. The problem with Africa now is our using foreign ideas and laws to rule Africans. That was why Nkrumah established the Institute of African Studies so that we could have formulated our own African Laws suitable to our roots and culture. These judges and lawyers are quoting laws whose history they are not even familiar with. They surely will settle for laws that allow homosexuality while banning polygamy even though the latter by African laws is acceptable.
What about the judges and officials who refused to take the bait of bribes? The weak shall always perish.

Even though some chiefs may be corrupt, I will rather purge the chieftancy tradition and use as a justice administrative tool rather than deal with corrupt lawyers, corrupt judges, and corrupt court clerks. At one point in my ongoing litigation it took me 6 months just to get my hands on documents that my lawyer wanted from the courts. Who has the energy, patience, and time to deal with such nonsense. The documents I was looking for was in a clerks desk. Do you know what he told me when I finally discovered he had them? "You know, this is how I chop small small". I had spent so much time around the courts that I was livid but chose not to report him because there is no accountability in the system and did not want to waste anymore of my precious time. All people seeking justice in our courts lose one way or the other when you consider the cumulative time spent running in and out of court, the postponements, the "judge did not come today" nonsense and such. Personally, the judicial system is crap and should be scrapped.

Chieftancy o,Lawyers o,Judges o, they are all corrupt.WE need intervention of God, as He through Aremeyaw Anass to force down the pomposity of Lawyers and judges by uncovering their secret bribe deals to the diadvantaged in society.Those lawyers who are preventing the case from going to ahead,will suffer a colosal scandal themselves in the very near future.As a matter of fact, something is needed to purge the judiciary as well as the whole system in the country which necessitated the surmoning of a journalist to unveil more than a century old corrupt practices of judges in Ghana.The lawyers must be warned that,no human effort can stop what the Ace journalist has begun since the right hand of God is in what he is doing as the rot in Ghana has sky rocketted reaching the tipping point.

These foolish judges should bow down their heads in shame rather than trying to cover up their stupidity threats and craps. If Ghana happens to be Isamic states, they would have all been beheaded by sword.

The results are very similar; just destroying the nation we all live in.

This argument of entrapment is nonsensical. Does this so called criminal lawyer really think a senior judge with years of experience in judging human character suddenly fall into a journalist's trap?

Only God knows the number of criminals who have been left to go free by these judges. The cases they have presided should be reviewed and investigated. This man called Obour is hiding behind legal technicalities to defend the indefensible. I suspect he Obour could have done worse. He should be equally investigated.

Is Bribery not a crime to be reported?
So when a law officer sees or has knowledge of crime being committed, does that official has a duty to act to stop it or report the crime?

Definition of Bribe:
1 : money or favor given or promised in order to influence the judgment or conduct of a person in a position of trust.
2 : something that serves to induce or influence.

Now the Judges and the Lawyers are in position of trust, at least the Judges are supposed to be, that is why they are made Judges.

The purpose of bribe is to influence an official to skew the judgment for favors. Bribe is an inducement; you cannot accept it and then say I was entrapped, after failing to report the act of crime, inducing a Judge or a law officer for favors!

Corruption is the dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving bribery. The Judges are Corrupt, as simple as that. They are dishonest and have no integrity.

I once visited a Lawyer’s office in Philadelphia; as I talked with the Lawyer, at a point, he placed his hands to his ears, covering his ears and telling me to stop what I was saying! He was telling me what I was suggesting could be illegal and as a law officer, he has the obligation to report illegalities. That is what I know about honest Law Officials.

Privacy of collecting bribes in corrupting the court cases that need to be done in accordance respect of the judicial laws?. Stealing , armed robbery is also a privacy breach by the police catching them? What is privacy ? There are two jobs on earth that accounts directly on fatal situations if you are on the other side.

Shut up you corrupt Judges….you have lost your credibility and integrity. You can come out with whatever arguments you have but in the eyes of the public you are shameful. How can one say Anas invaded your privacy. Has one seen bribery changing hands in public? Definitely it should be indoors. Whether Anas lured you judges into accepting these, you had the option to have rejected the said bribes as others. Those with integrity rejected the bribes while you corrupted ones greedily snatched them. You have always been collecting bribes subverting the laws. Your time is up and your cup is full. Shut up and go to hell. God bless you Anas more of those….
