Yesterday monday,Ghana's government suspended seven out of 12 high court judges for allegations of bribery stemming from a documentary made by an investigative journalist.The decision is part of a response to a three hour film first screened in the capital last month that has caused an uproar in the West African country because it showed judges accepting bribe money through intermediaries.The documentary put Chief Justice Georgina Wood and other judicial leaders under pressure to show a forceful public response.From a statement from the Judicial Service announcing a decision by Vice President Kwesi Amissah Arthur based on advice from the Judicial Council,saying ''Their suspension follows the establishment of a prima facie case of stated misbehavior against them by the Hon.Lady Chief Justice {wood}''.The council previously suspended 22 junior judges who appeared in the video and investigated the conduct of high court judges to see if there is a case for their impeachment.Some of the judges have denied wrong doing and have filed a challenge in court,saying their suspension had no legal basis because documents relating to the video that were submitted by the journalist were not made available to them.
