The second witness for the prosecution in the Sky Train case did not show up for court proceedings on Tuesday, February 24, 2026. This court session was part of the ongoing trial involving Solomon Asamoah and Professor Christopher Ameyaw Akumfi.
The witness, identified as Kofi Boakye Esq., was expected to continue giving evidence. His absence halted the day's proceedings. Official court documents have not provided a reason for his failure to appear.
The day before, the lawyer representing the first accused person had been engaged in cross-examining Mr. Boakye. The details of that cross-examination were being documented. It is unclear if his absence is related to that questioning.
The Attorney General's office is prosecuting the case. They are responsible for presenting evidence against the accused individuals.
The Sky Train project involves allegations of financial impropriety. The court case seeks to establish facts related to these allegations.
Further court dates will be set to continue the trial. The Judicial Service will manage the scheduling of future hearings.
The absence of a key witness can impact the timeline of any court case. This trial is for charges related to the Sky Train project.
