You’ll be disgraced if you challenge the decision by the Court of Appeal – Haruna to Dame

Haruna Iddrisu, the Member of Parliament for Tamale South, has advised the Attorney General and Minister of Justice Godfred Yeboah Dame to rescind his decision to challenge the Court of Appeal’s ruling that acquitted and discharged Minority Leader Cassiel Ato Forson.

The former Minority Leader opined that if Mr. Dame brought the matter before the Supreme Court, he would be disgraced.

The Court of Appeal, in a 2:1 decision, overturned the trial court’s directive for Dr. Forson to present his defence in the ongoing ambulance trial and upheld his appeal of no case.

The court cleared Minority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, and overturned the trial court’s order for Dr. Ato Forson to present his defence in the ambulance matter.

But Godfred Dame, in his reaction, said, “The Office of the Attorney-General considers the decision of the Court of Appeal grossly unfair to the nation and inimical to the fight against impunity and abuse in public office.”

Haruna Iddrisu, commenting on the latest update, asked him to accept the outcome and avoid further disgrace.

“I hear the Attorney General, even instead of swallowing his humble pride, saying that he wants to litigate on this matter."

“Mr. Speaker, we assure him that he will be further disgraced because, in this matter, if you want to try people, try them on matters that are legally meritorious,” he said.
