Ato Forson Demands Live Broadcast of Ambulance Trial

Dr Cassiel Ato Forson

Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, Minority Leader and the first accused person in the Ambulance trial has petitioned the Chief Justice to permit the live broadcast of all subsequent proceedings in the ongoing trial.

The former Deputy Minister of Finance under the erstwhile Mahama’s administration, in a statement indicated that the move is a result of recent allegations of misconduct against the Attorney-General, Godfred Yeboah Dame, which has captured significant public attention.

“In the wake of the recent exposé concerning the alleged misconduct of the Attorney-General, Godfred Yeboah Dame, I have instructed my lawyers to petition the Chief Justice for the live broadcast of all subsequent proceedings in the Ambulance Trial.

“This request is motivated by a deep commitment to transparency and open justice, principles that are fundamental to a fair and impartial legal system”.

Dr Ato Forson further posited that the allegations against the Attorney-General are deeply concerning, asserting that if proven true, they represent a serious breach of public trust and a threat to the integrity of the country’s judicial system.

Given what he noted as the damning nature of the allegations levelled against the Attorney-General, the Minority Leader thus emphasized that the allegations must not only be thoroughly investigated but the public be allowed to witness the proceedings firsthand.

The Case for Live Broadcasts

The Minority Leader, while demanding the live broadcast of the ongoing Ambulance trial, underscored the multiple benefits of broadcasting the trial live, emphasizing that it is crucial for upholding transparency, accountability, and public confidence in the country’s legal system.

Firstly, Dr Ato Forson noted that live broadcasts of the ongoing Ambulance trial would provide the public with unfiltered access to the trial’s evidence and legal arguments.

He also added that the move would enable citizens to form their own informed opinions about the case and hold the actors in the case accountable for their actions.

Secondly, Dr Forson argued that making the proceedings accessible to all Ghanaians would promote transparency and accountability within the legal system, ensuring that justice is served fairly and impartially.

Here, the Member of Parliament for Ajumako Enyan Essiam Constituency further emphasized that transparency in legal proceedings can bolster public confidence in judicial outcomes, particularly in high-profile cases such as the Ambulance trial, which attract widespread public interest.

Deterrent Against Misconduct

Thirdly, the Minority Leader, Dr Ato Forson strongly posited that live broadcasting of the ongoing Ambulance trial would serve as a powerful deterrent against future misconduct of public servants.

He contended that knowing their actions will be subject to public view, the move will encourage those involved in the legal system to adhere to the highest ethical standards.

He emphasized that it is in the best interests of both the public and the country’s legal system that the ongoing trial proceedings regarding the Ambulance case be conducted with the utmost level of transparency.

Dr Forson concluded by asserting that his call for live broadcasting of the Ambulance Trial is underscored by his profound commitment to the principles of transparency and open justice.
