Ghana’s Supreme Court delivered a unanimous ruling affirming the independence of the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) in investigating and prosecuting corruption offenses. The court established that the OSP possesses the legal power to act autonomously in pursuing such cases. However, the ruling also clarified that the Attorney-General (AG) maintains the constitutional authority to halt these prosecutions. This is achieved through the use of a nolle prosequi, a legal term signifying the discontinuation of a criminal case. The decision defines a balance of power between the two offices, ensuring the OSP's operational freedom while upholding the AG's ultimate oversight. This ruling clarifies existing ambiguities regarding the scope of authority for both the OSP and the AG in combating corruption. The decision’s implications are expected to shape future anti-corruption efforts in Ghana.
