AG-Jakpa tape: There’s no basis to allow inquiry into Attorney General’s conduct – Judge

An Accra High Court has dismissed requests for an inquiry into the Attorney General's conduct in the Ambulance case, ruling they lack legal basis.

The case involves Richard Jakpa and Dr. Ato Forson, accused of causing a €2.37 million loss to the state in a contract for ambulances.

Jakpa alleged the A-G contacted him at odd hours for testimony against Dr. Forson.

The court's decision follows applications for an inquiry, a mistrial, a stay of proceedings, and to strike out charges.

The motions, filed by Dr. Ato Forson and Jakpa, were denied by Justice Afia Serwah Asare-Botwe.
