A petition filed against Supreme Court Justice Gabriel Scott Pwamang by Edward Adeti has been dismissed following a preliminary inquiry by the Chief Justice, which found no prima facie case to warrant further investigation.

The statement explained that the constitutional threshold required to initiate further proceedings had not been met, making further investigation unnecessary.
Consequently, no further action is required in respect of the petition, with the matter considered closed.
The Office of the President also assured the public that the petition had been handled in accordance with the applicable constitutional procedures and principles of due process.
The statement was signed by Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Spokesperson to the President and Minister for Government Communications.
