According to a High Court decision, investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas of Ghana will be permitted to testify in open court while wearing his famed mask in his case against former Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kwasi Nyantakyi.
However, before his evidence, Mr. Nyantakyi will have the chance to see Anas’ face for the first time without it being covered up in chamber, according to Myjoyonline.com.
Following a request from Mr. Nyantakyi’s attorneys for the chance to see Anas in his actual face so that he could defend himself, the court made the decision.
