The National Communications Officer of the NDC, Sammy Gyamfi, has alleged that the Attorney General, Godfred Dame, is plotting to imprison the Minority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, by all means.
Sammy Gyamfi made this claim following revelations during the cross-examination of the third accused person, Richard Jakpa, in the ongoing ambulance case on Thursday, May 23.
In a statement to the media after Thursday’s court session, Mr. Gyamfi revealed the efforts being made by the A-G, including contacting the third accused person at unusual hours, all in an attempt to obtain incriminating testimony against the Minority Leader.
“We have times without number explained why we think that Hon Ato Forson is innocent. And that this case is needless. The minority leader has opened his case and closed it. Currently, the 3rd accused is being cross-examined by lawyers for a minority leader who is the first accused.
“We were all in court to monitor the proceedings, but we were shocked to the marrow when the 3rd accused under cross-examination disclosed to the court that the Hon Attorney General has been reaching out to him, calling him over the phone that he has reached out to him and met him in person.
“That the Attorney-General has been asking to give false testimony to the court and skew his testimony in such a way that corroborates the AG, against the first accused so that the first accused can be convicted and jailed. He said this in open court.”
