The Supreme Court has quashed a bench warrant issued in 2020 for the arrest of US-based Ghanaian journalist Kevin Taylor. The warrant had been issued by a High Court over alleged contemptuous comments Taylor made against Justice Eric Kyei Baffour.
The apex court ruled that the warrant was unlawful and should not have been issued under the circumstances. The decision effectively brings to an end a five-year legal standoff that stemmed from Taylor’s critical commentary on a case presided over by Justice Kyei Baffour.
