Thanx Suntou for sharing. I got wind of this news on saturday from my friend in Surulere. Guess what else???? Femi Peters' appeal was to be presided over by Justice Richards due to the dual role of High Court Judges in Gambia. That sitting was to take place today. Not that this was the reason Justice Richards was fired but it sure is too coincidental to be fired NOW.

Haruna. As one of our coleagues suggested, the delay tactics are in full force.

Justice Moses Richards of the Special Criminal Court (SCC) in Banjul has been relieved of his position as high court judge effective Friday, April 23rd, 2010, the Daily Observer can reveal. 

Although no reason was publicly advanced for his removal, this reporter reliably gathered that the SCC judge was handed his marching order at about 08:00 am on Friday. When contacted, the acting judicial secretary, John Belford confirmed the  removal of Justice Richards.
