Justice Baffoe-Bonney stated that the courts are intended to strengthen the justice system. They will help ensure that cases of financial wrongdoing are dealt with quickly.
He dismissed concerns that the courts are meant to target politicians. The Chief Justice emphasized that the initiative is about improving the efficiency of justice delivery.
The establishment of these courts is a move by the Judicial Service to tackle specific types of crime more effectively.
This initiative aims to ensure that financial malfeasance and related offenses are addressed promptly through the legal process.
