AMBULANCE CASE: MINORITY LEADER, ATO FORSON ACQUITTED AND DISCHARGED BY COURT

The Court of Appeal has discharged the Minority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, from the ongoing ambulance case.

This decision overturned the previous order from the trial court, which required Dr. Ato Forson to present his defense.

The Court of Appeal’s ruling sets aside the trial court’s directive, delivered by Justice Afia Serwaa Asare Botwe, which had dismissed Ato Forson’s submission of no case.

The Court of Appeal’s decision now upholds Dr Ato Forson’s submission.

As a result, Dr. Ato Forson is no longer required to open his defense in the ongoing trial, marking a significant development in the case.

Cassiel Ato Forson and Richard Jakpa, who is a representative for Big Sea have been accused of causing a financial loss of €2.37 million to the state in a deal to purchase 200 ambulances for the country between 2014 and 2016

Dr. Ato Forson had argued that there was no case for him to answer, but this submission was initially rejected by the trial judge.
