He explained that the courts have the power to protect the rights of suspects.
Justice Amoako Asante noted that authorities can be held accountable if they violate these rights.
This statement highlights the importance of adhering to legal procedures in detentions.
The 48-hour rule is a key protection for citizens against unlawful imprisonment.
