Top Story: Extradited Sedina Tamakloe Returns to Ghana; Will Her 10-Year Sentence Begin Now?
Top Story with Samuel Kojo Brace on Joy 99.7 FM examines the dramatic return of former MASLOC CEO Sedina Tamakloe-Attionu to Ghana following her extradition from the United States.
Convicted in absentia in 2024 and sentenced to 10 years imprisonment for stealing, conspiracy, money laundering and causing financial loss to the state, Sedina Tamakloe-Attionu is now back in Ghana after more than two years of extradition proceedings.
But her return has triggered fresh legal questions. Does her sentence begin from the date it was pronounced in court, or from the day she is taken into custody in Ghana? What are her legal options, and could constitutional issues surrounding trial in absentia come into play?
Tonight, we hear from the Deputy Attorney-General, legal experts, anti-corruption campaigners and the opposition NPP as we unpack the legal, political and constitutional implications of one of Ghana's most high-profile extradition cases. #TopStory #MyJoyOnline #JoyNews https://www.myjoyonline.com/ghana-news/ Subscribe for more videos just like this: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChd1DEecCRlxaa0-hvPACCw/
