1982

Kwadwo Agyei Agyapong was a Ghanaian judge and one of the murdered judges that were abducted on 30 June 1982.

Agyapong was one of the four people (together with Justice Fred Poku Sarkodee, Justice Cecilia Koranteng-Addow, and Major Sam Acquah) that were abducted during curfew hours (which started at 6pm and ended at 6am) on June 30, 1982.

Their abductors were later identified as soldiers who were in plain clothes at the time of the abduction.

According to the report of the Special Investigation Board appointed by the PNDC, one of the abductors, Johnny Dzandu, told the abducted persons that they (the abducted people) were "enemies of the revolution".

The abductors were driving in a Fiat Compagnola jeep during curfew hours.

The abducted people were later found dead with gun-shot wounds and superficial burns.

Agyapong, like his three compatriots, had their lives and careers abruptly ended by their untimely deaths on June 30, 1982.

In the forecourt of the Supreme Court premises, three busts have been erected in honour of the three High Court Judges as a perpetual memorial of their judicial careers and sacrifice.

On Justice Agyapong's bust are inscribed the following words: "'Justice Agyapong will be remembered for his simple and unassuming manner. His prodigious capacity and love for Judicial work and his abhorrence for violence. He was a committed father, husband and judge. May the soul of justice Agyei Kwadwo Agyapong rest in peace.'"
