Former Assin Central MP, Kennedy Agyapong, is pushing back against an $18 million defamation ruling in a U.S.
court, seeking a reduction in damages awarded to investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
Agyapong's legal team has filed a motion in the Superior Court of New Jersey, urging the court to reconsider the jury's decision and adjust the damages.
They argue that while jury verdicts carry weight, courts have the authority to review and modify awards deemed excessive.
