High Court defers adoption of proceedings in Charles Bissue’s trial to October 26
The High Court in Accra has deferred the adoption of proceedings in the case in which the former Secretary to the now-defunct Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM), Charles Bissue, and two others are standing trial over corruption and corruption-related charges.
Justice Achibonga therefore held that the court is not properly clothed with the authority to adopt proceedings or hear any pending applications before that date, and would accordingly abide by the earlier adjournment to October 26.
He explained that although all the proceedings have now been made available, the court has observed that on August 12, 2026, his colleague who was previously handling the matter adjourned it to October 26, 2026.
