Justice Torkornoo claims she has been subjected to mental distress by the committee’s actions, including denial of access to her mobile phones, invasive body searches, and refusal to admit her husband and children into the hearing room.
She finds it strange that all other hearings of such nature in the past took place in a judicial premises while hers is taking place in a high security facility
