Lawyers for former Board Chair of the Ghana Infrastructure Investment Fund (GIIF), Prof Christopher Ameyaw-Akumfi, have filed a motion at the High Court seeking to suspend his ongoing criminal trial over the controversial Sky Train deal.

Prof.

Ameyaw-Akumfi and former GIIF CEO Solomon Asamoah are facing charges of causing financial loss to the state and willful dissipation of public funds.

However, in their latest legal move, the defence argues that the charges are premature and has asked the court to strike them out.
