Commercial High Court
presided over by Justice Eric Kyei Baffour, has issued an arrest warrant
directed at the Inspector General of Police (IGP), the National Security and
the Bureau of National Investigations (BNI), to arrest social media
commentator, Kelvin Taylor.
He’s to be presented in court to answer why he should not be committed to jail
for his derogatory comments about him, Justice Eric Kyei Baffour.
In a recent episode of his social media video reportage called “With All Due
Respect” and dubbed the “The Men in Red, Tainted Judiciary”, Kelvin Taylor,
picked on the Court of Appeal Judge, Justice Eric Kyei Baffour, and made
several allegations against him.
“Today I will tell you about the men in red, yes, the men in red and how some
of them have been compromised,” Kelvin Taylor said in his introduction in the
said video.
Kelvin Taylor further indicated in his video that among the recent High Court
Justices who were promoted to the Court of Appeal, Justice Eric Kyei Baffour,
has been penned down by members of the ruling government to be used as the
conduit to prosecute former government officials. He called on the new Chief
Justice, Justice Anin Yeboah to investigate the Court of Appeal Judge failing
which he will release audio tapes in his custody bordering on meetings the
Court of Appeal Judge has had with high ranking officials of the Akufo-Addo led
administration.
The social media commentator further zeroed in on a case before Justice Eric
Kyei Baffour entitled the “Republic versus Eugene Baffoe-Bonnie and four
others” indicating that he is deliberately twisting the law as far as
proceedings, in that case, is concerned to favour the current NPP
administration.
“Justice Eric Kyei Baffour was hurriedly
promoted from a High Court Judge to a Court of Appeal Judge. I can say on
authority that Justice Kyei Baffour is operating on the orders of President
Akufo-Addo and the National Security Minister Kan Dapaah. This is why the case
of the former NCA board members was jumped straight to the Commercial Court to
Kyei Baffour so that he will execute government agenda. This is basic. With all
due respect, my fellow Ghanaians, Justice Kyei Baffour is seriously doing the
bidding of the President and more importantly the bidding of the National
Security Minister, Mr. Kan Dapaah,” Kelvin Taylor said.
Kelvin Taylor also alleged that the Court of
Appeal Judge, Justice Eric Kyei Baffour, has recently built a mansion in Accra
that has become the talk of the town.
“Justice Kyei Baffour has become too powerful
and too rich in this short time. He recently built one of the most expensive
mansions in Accra which in fact has become the talk in the corridors of the
Justice department” Taylor said.
Justice Eric Kyei Baffour in issuing the arrest
warrant said the warrant will hold until Kelvin Taylor is arrested and
presented to his Court or until he longer exists on planet earth.
