Wontumi appeal to challenge over 20 legal errors, including constitutional breaches – Atta Akyea

Speaking on JoyFM's TopStory on Tuesday, July 21, Samuel Atta Akyea said one of the key issues the defence will raise is the trial judge's decision not to refer constitutional questions to the Supreme Court for interpretation before delivering judgment."I do not see how any High Court judge will ignore serious and consequential constitutional interpretation and go ahead with the matter," he said.

Mr Atta Akyea said the defence is confident the Court of Appeal will carefully examine the constitutional and procedural issues raised and determine whether the conviction can stand.
