Lawyer Alex Gyamfi stated that courts should not make accused persons prove their innocence.
He explained that in criminal cases, the prosecution has the duty to prove its case against the accused.
Gyamfi spoke on the Asaase Breakfast Show on Friday, July 31.
He said a court cannot properly convict someone if it shifts the burden of proof to the accused.
The prosecution carries the responsibility to prove its case to the required standard.
This legal principle ensures fairness in the justice system.
