No show at Ofosu Ampofo trial; case adjourned to Nov 11

The Commercial Division of the Accra High Court presided over by Justice Samuel Asiedu has adjourned the case in which Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and Kweku Boahen, a deputy Communication officer of the party are standing trial to November 11, 2019.

This was because the NDC chairman’s application at the Court of Appeal for a stay of proceedings at the High Court is still pending.

In court on Monday, the Director of Public Prosecution, Mrs Yvonne Atakorah Obuobisah told the court that the application is supposed to have been moved on November 23.



She added that, the case could not be heard because counsel for the NDC chairman was yet to be served with their response.

On his part counsel for the NDC chairman Tony Lithur told the court that they have been served with a hearing notice to appear at the Court of Appeal on November 6.

Justice Asiedu subsequently adjourned the case to November 11 by which time the application at the court of appeal would have been determined.
