Freddie Blay, former National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, has been remanded by the Akropong Circuit Court. He is accused of involvement in a demolition dispute at Kitase.
Blay's lawyer, Gregory Asiedu, stated that his client is unwell and receiving care at home. Asiedu argued that Blay poses no flight risk to the court.
The lawyer questioned the basis for the court's decision to remand his client. He suggested an abuse of court processes may have occurred.
The specific details of the demolition dispute have not been made public by the prosecution.
The court has ordered Blay to remain in custody. Further proceedings are expected as the case develops.
This legal action follows an incident where Blay's name was linked to the demolition activities. The Judicial Service has not released further details on the court proceedings.
