Freddie Blay, former National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, has been remanded by the Akropong Circuit Court. This decision stems from allegations of his involvement in a demolition dispute at Kitase.
His lawyer, Gregory Asiedu, argues that the court process has been abused in this instance. Asiedu stated that his client is currently ill and at home.
The lawyer further emphasized that Freddie Blay is not a flight risk. He questioned the basis for the court's decision to remand him.
The specific details of the demolition dispute and Freddie Blay's alleged role are subject to ongoing legal proceedings.
Authorities have not yet released a detailed statement on the evidence supporting the remand.
The case highlights the legal strategies employed when a defendant claims illness and denies intent to evade justice.
Further court appearances will clarify the evidence against Freddie Blay.
