"Having received notice of the Court of Appeal's decision, the Attorney-General has directed the Director of Public Prosecutions to immediately file a notice of appeal to the Supreme Court, together with an application for a stay of execution of the judgment pending the determination of the appeal," the statement read.

The Attorney General has directed the Director of Public Prosecutions to immediately file an appeal to the Supreme Court challenging the Court of Appeal's decision acquitting and discharging former MASLOC CEO Sedina Tamakloe Attionu.

Lawyer for the acquitted former MASLOC CEO, Enoch Deegbe, speaking to Class News moments after the ruling, disclosed that the Court of Appeal based its decision primarily on the defective charge sheet used to prosecute his client.
