Minority in Parliament has initiated an appeal against a ruling by the High Court against Akwatia MP who is a member of the Minority Caucus.
The High Court in Koforidua on February 19 issued a bench warrant for the arrest of Akwatia Member of Parliament, Ernest Yaw Kumi, after convicting him of contempt of court.
The ruling stems from Yaw Kumi's decision to continue holding himself out as an MP despite an interim injunction barring him from being sworn into office.
The court had earlier directed him to refrain from assuming the parliamentary role until a legal dispute was resolved, but he defied the order and took the oath of office in Parliament.
