Judge Paul Uuter Dery Pertitions President John Mahama to Investigate Anas

Judge Paul Uuter Dery lodged a formal complaint to President John Mahama to investigate journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas to have him and other justices of the superior court removed from office. According to the judge, Anas lacks identity and is virtually non-existent.

 “Your Excellency, we have the instructions of our client to draw your attention to these serious identity problems of the petitioner for in our view, the identity of the petitioner is paramount to any petition for the removal of Justices of the Superior Court pursuant to Article 146 of the 1992 Constitution,” the letter intercepted said.

The 13-point letter dated Monday, February 8 asked President Mahama to “cause an investigation to be conducted into the true identity of the petitioner since from the evidence adduced herein, the petitioner Tiger Eye PI who purported to file a petition with your office is non-existent”. This letter was written by Justice Dery’s council on his behalf which was then copied to the Chief Justice, Georgina Theodora Wood.

Justice Paul Uuter Dery is among 12 high court judges indicted in a petition filed by Anas after a landmark exposure on the judiciary.
