In a loud unanimous voice, the Supreme Court endorsed the prosecutorial powers of the the Office of the Special Prosecutor and dismissed all the reliefs of Mr. Noah Adamtey in the case of NOAH EPHRAEM TETTEH ADAMTEY v. ATTORNEY-GENERAL [TLP-SC-2026-22].

The Supreme Court held in the said case that the Office of the Special Prosecutor's powers does not derogate from the Article 88 powers of the Attorney-General. The Court thus set aside the decision of the High Court in the case of THE REPUBLIC v. THE OFFICE OF SPECIAL PROSECUTOR [TLP-HC-2026-10]
