Sedina Tamakloe case: AG plans to free all NDC members – NPP

The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has accused Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr Dominic Ayine, of deliberately using his office to secure the release of members and allies of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) facing corruption-related prosecutions. The allegation follows Thursday's Court of Appeal decision to acquit and discharge former Chief Executive Officer of the Microfinance and Small Loans Centre (MASLOC), Sedina Tamakloe-Attionu, overturning her earlier conviction and 10-year prison sentence. Addressing a press conference on Friday, July 31, the NPP's National Organiser, Henry Nana Boakye, claimed the MASLOC ruling was part of what he described as a deliberate pattern by the Attorney General to discontinue or overturn criminal cases involving former NDC officials.
