The Court of Appeal sitting in Koforidua has granted an interlocutory injunction in a case brought by Professor Margaret Kweku and others from the SALL traditional areas, effectively restraining from presenting himself as the former Member of Parliament for the Hohoe Constituency.
In its ruling, the court barred the former lawmaker from holding himself out in any capacity as a former MP in the 8th Parliament of the Fourth Republic, according to a report by myjoyonline.com. "The Court also restrained the Speaker of Parliament from processing or paying any entitlements to Mr.
Amewu as the former MP, pending the hearing and determination of the appeal," the report noted.
The order further extended to the Speaker of Parliament, , who has been restrained from disbursing any benefits or entitlements due to Peter Amewu in that capacity until the appeal is resolved.
