The Supreme Court has quashed an arrest warrant issued against Ghanaian US-based broadcaster Kevin Ekow Taylor.
In a 4:1 majority decision delivered in Accra on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, the Supreme Court said the process breached the principles of natural justice and denied him the right to be heard.
The arrest warrant was issued in January 2020 by the High Court in Accra presided over by Justice Eric Kyei Baffour in a contempt case.
Taylor had been cited for making comments on social media in a relation to a case that was pending before the court and was deemed disrespectful to the judiciary
Although he was never arrested, the warrant remained in force until the Tuesday morning Supreme Court decision.
