MASLOC case: Samson Lardy Anyenini explains Sedina’s trial, conviction and 10-year sentence

Speaking on JoyNews' The Law on Sunday, August 2, Mr Anyenini explained that Tamakloe-Attionu's trial followed due legal process, including the decision by the High Court to proceed with the case in her absence after she failed to return to Ghana from a court-approved medical trip to the United States.

Multiple convictions and concurrent sentences Mr Anyenini also clarified that the widely reported 10-year and five-year prison terms represented the effective sentences after the court considered multiple charges against the accused persons.

He said the High Court granted her request in July 2021, with the condition that she would return on October 10, 2021, to begin her defence after the prosecution had completed presenting its case.
