The trial of
former COCOBOD CEO Stephen Opuni has been adjourned to July 25, after a new
judge was assigned to the case.
His Lordship
Justice Aboagye Tandoh is the third judge to be assigned to the case.
This comes after
the court of appeal overturned the decision of Justice Anokye Gyimah who
recently took over the case not to adopt proceedings under the first judge to
handle the case, Justice Hornyenugah.
Justice Anokye
Gyimah, however, was recently reassigned, and the case was given to a new
Judge, Justice Aboagye Tandoh.
The parties,
after making their first appearance before Justice Aboagye Tandoh since the
development, informed him of the decision of the court of appeal.
Lawyers for
Opuni, however, served notice of intention to further make an appeal to the
Supreme Court.
The judge
adjourned the case to July 25, for the parties to request for the records of
the ruling to pave the way for a continuation of the trial.
