The lawyer for former NPP National Chairman Freddie Blay has challenged his client's remand by the Akropong Circuit Court. Blay is accused of being involved in a dispute over a demolition at Kitase.
Lawyer Gregory Asiedu stated that his client is not a flight risk. He explained that Blay has been sick and is currently at home.
Asiedu argued that the court's decision to remand Blay was an abuse of the legal process.
The lawyer presented Blay's health condition as a reason why he should not be held in custody.
The court had ordered Blay to be remanded as part of the ongoing investigation into the Kitase demolition incident.
Further details on the demolition dispute were not immediately available from official sources.
The legal proceedings are expected to continue as the case progresses through the court system.
The Ghana Police Service is investigating the matter.
