‘Case may not continue without counsel’ – Samson Lardy Anyenini on Adu-Boahene trial
Speaking on Joy FM's Top Story on Tuesday, August 11, Mr Anyenini said while he does not disagree with the Chief Justice’s position on the need to expedite the determination of cases, he believes the absence of defence counsel could affect the continuation of the trial.
This comes at a time the High Court in Accra has technically given former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB) and his wife, Angela Adjei Boateng, six days to secure the presence of their lawyers for the continuation of their trial on August 17.
His comments follow the decision by lead counsel for Mr Adu-Boahene and his wife, Angela Adjei Boateng, Samuel Atta Akyea, to stay away from court on Tuesday, August 11.
