A court has ordered Freddie Blay, a former National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, to be held in custody. This is in connection with an incident involving the demolition of a property. The location of this incident was Kitase in the Eastern Region.
Mr. Blay, who is also a lawyer, was arrested and handed over to the Akropong Police. The court made the decision on Monday.
The Akropong Circuit Court is handling the case. It has adjourned proceedings to April 9. This means the court will hear more about the case on that date.
The specific details of the property dispute are still under investigation. The court has not yet released further information regarding the charges.
The Ghana Police Service is overseeing the custody arrangements. Mr. Blay will remain with the Akropong Police until the next court date.
