Heavily armed police have taken positions at the Supreme Court building in Accra awaiting the hearing of an ex-parte writ filed by the ruling party to stop the Electoral Commission from announcing a winner in the presidential race in Ghana.The building also houses several High Courts, one of which has been empanelled this holiday by the Chief Justice, Georgina Theodora Wood, to hear the NPP application.Justice Amoako Asante is the judge to hear the case.The application primarily seeks to place an injunction on the EC from announcing a winner and next President of Ghana until claims of electoral fraud during the December 28 presidential runoff have been investigated.Court Registrars have told Joy News reporter, Evans Mensah the writ does not seek to stop the conduct of the outstanding Tain Constituency presidential runoff, scheduled for Tomorrow, Friday, December 2.Indeed the NPP and NDC have traded accusations of malpractices in strongholds of each other, including assault, multiple voting, rejection of party observers, ballot snatching and stuffing.NDC lawyers who got wind of the exparte-motion, are dashing to the courts to see to have an input.Tony Lithur, one of many lawyers who have represented bigwigs, who was first of the lot to arrive at the Supreme Court premises, believes the Tain election would be affected eventually if the writ succeeds, because it would stop the EC Chairman from announcing results of the constituency ballot.Story by Isaac Yeboah
