The strike action of jurors has entered into the seventh week with some high profile cases still suffering adjournments at the courts.
This has affected cases like the Kasoa ritual murder case, Daniel Asiedu alias Sexy Don Don, Richard Appiah accused of killing two teenagers at Abesim and Pius Ayoma among others have all suffered one adjournments from another following the absence of jurors.
For seven weeks since May 16, 1024, the jurors laid down their tools over 10-months unpaid allowance.
