Legal luminary, Tsatsu Tsikata has denied knowing anything about the abduction and murder of the three judges and an army major in 1982, MyNewsGH.com has filed.
According to him, at no point in time was he aware of any development around the murder calling it “an outrageous claim”.
“It is an outrageous claim. Completely outrageous!” Tsatsu Tsikata fired.
“From the bottom of my heart, I had nothing to do with the murder of the judges” he added.
“The day that I heard that judges had been abducted, I was actually in court in Ho. I had left Accra in the morning. I had driven to Ho oblivious of the murder of the judges. There was a case I was doing for some farmers in Ho, as I was entering the town I didn’t know where the court was so I saw a lawyer as he was then and I wanted to ask him for direction to the court. That is Lawyer Dotse as he was then. I knew him because he was my student at Legon. So he asked me about the murder of the judges. I was completely dumbfounded. I hope Justice Jones Dotse will not mind my making this public,” Tsatsu explained.
