Update: Prosecution Scheduled to Continue Cross-Examination of Richard Jakpa Today
Written by GliveRadio Accra on June 27, 2024
This afternoon, the prosecution will continue cross-examining Richard Jakpa in the ongoing ambulance procurement case, where Minority Leader of Parliament Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson is co-accused with him. Both individuals are facing charges of willfully causing financial loss to the state and deliberately misapplying state property.
The state alleges a loss of €2.37 million due to the purchase of defective sprinter buses.
Today’s cross-examination presents the prosecution with another opportunity to scrutinize the procurement processes of the ambulances from the businessman involved.
