“As we speak, the region’s docket is in the office of the Attorney-General, and therefore I cannot proceed,” he told the Court.
Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah is standing trial with six others for offensive conduct to the breach of peace, and threats of death, as well as conspiracy to, and abetment of crime.
The popular pastor and the two others; Bright Berchie and Mensah Ofori, have been on trial for about three weeks after they were arrested for issuing threats, brandishing weapons and attacking Police officers.
