The Office of the Attorney General (AG) has officially filed an appeal against the Court of Appeal's decision to acquit and discharge Minority Leader and businessman Richard Jakpa in the controversial ambulance procurement case. In the Notice of Appeal, filed on Thursday, August 8, 2024, the Attorney General's office argues that the Court of Appeal's majority decision misapplied the legal standards necessary to determine whether the accused had a case to answer. The appeal challenges the court's conclusion that the letters of credit issued in the ambulance transaction did not constitute a payment under the contract, describing this finding as "contrary to the evidence in the case and untenable." Further, the appeal criticises the court's decision to attribute the financial loss solely to the Ministry of Health, arguing that this ruling contains "fundamental errors" and has resulted in a "substantial miscarriage of justice." The prosecution also contends that the court failed to adequately apply the essential elements of the charges brought against Dr. Forson and Mr. Jakpa.
