12 photos: Tight security as judges tighten noose around Montie 3

It was a hearing of tight things. Police tightened security after a fanatical first day in court and the judges tightened the noose around the neck of three radio panelist as they convicted them of criminal contempt.

'Montie' means 'listen' and after the judges listened to the tape play in court, they convicted the contemnors

There was a general consensus that security on Day 2 of the hearing was impressive after Day 1 witnessed brushes with a fanatical group of governing National Democratic Congress (NDC)/Montie FM supporters.

Wild dogs handled by the Military Police became a side attraction to journalists within the premises as they endured a five-hour wait for a verdict.

Supporters of the Montie 3 were kept away from the court building, leaving them standing in between two busy roads in Accra.
