The exposé which was termed as the “biggest scandal ever to hit Ghana’s judicial service” led to the suspension of seven of 12 High Court judges implicated in the documentary. Mr Justice Acquah said the service was trying to come out with a Code of Conduct for Judges adding, "The Judicial Service would continue to pursue judges that are corrupt." He said the Judicial Service did not have enough judges, citing Greater Accra as having only 31 High Court Judges. "The Judicial Service needs a lot of financial input in order to achieve its vision," he added.
