Delta Force 8: NPP has always been lawless - Loh

Former Member of Parliament for North Dayi and lawyer for the infamous Montie trio, George Loh, says he is disappointed in the discharge of eight Delta Force members by a Kumasi Circuit Court.

In an interview with Ekourba Gyasi on Atinka AM Drive, George Loh said he was surprised at the ruling because he thought the New Patriotic Party (NPP) was a party obsessed with the rule of law. He added that if a government like the NPP administration can condone such lawless acts, then Ghana has a long way to go.

According to him, this is a clear manifestation that the NPP has always been a lawless government. He said he was surprsied that the court freed thugs who attacked its integrity.

“For the court to discharge these same people for lack of evidence is really disappointing”, he said.

The members of the group were standing trial for forcibly entering a court room in Kumasi and freeing some of their members who were in lawful custody

But they were discharged by the court, presided over by Her Honour, Patricia Amponsah after the prosecutor said she had instructions from the Attorney General, Gloria Akuffo, to drop charges against them for want of prosecution
