For fear of being accused by his superiors for not showing the records of proceedings of the trial of Jesus One Touch, to them, a Principal State Attorney, Monday, pleaded with the Accra High Court to adjourn the appeal case. Mr Rexford Wiredu, the Principal State Attorney informed the court, presided over by Justice E.F. Dzakpasu, that his superiors, the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice and the Director of Public Prosecutions were out of the court's jurisdiction. “I do not want to be accused of not showing the records of proceedings to them before the appeal is heard.” Nana Kofi Yirenkyi, popularly known as 'Jesus One Touch', the head pastor of Jesus Blood Prophetic Ministry, was on January 20, this year, convicted by the Accra Gender-based Violence Court, on two counts of defilement, and incest of his 10-year old daughter. On November 2, this year, Yirenkyi filed an appeal at the High Court claiming that his conviction and sentence were against the weight of the totality of the evidence adduced at the lower court. Mr. Wiredu said he was given the proceedings on short notice and needed time to study it before handing them over to his superiors for advice. He, therefore, prayed the court for an adjournment. Opposing the prosecution's request, defence counsel, K.N. Adomako-Acheampong, accused the Attorney-General's Department of not being candid to themselves and the court. He said the Attorney-General's Department had not been fair to his client since November 2, this year when the High Court stayed proceedings of the lower court pending an appeal. Counsel alleged that the prosecution went to the Supreme Court after the High Court had stayed proceedings to misrepresent the records of proceedings. This brought Mr Wiredu to his feet to deny defence counsel's assertion and the judge had to intervene to allow sanity to prevail in court. However, Mr. Adomako-Acheampong insisted that “the prosecution went to the Supreme Court to say things which did not happen in your court after you had arrested the judgment by the lower court. “They were bashed at the Supreme Court and have come to your court again to say something different”. The court granted the request of the prosecution and adjourned to January 16, 2012 to enable the prosecution time to study the records of proceedings.
