The criminal case against businessman Alfred Agbesi Woyome has been adjourned again to July 12 by an Accra High Court, with the state prosecution pleading for more time to bring another witness.
The court presided over by Justice John Ajet-Nasam announced the adjournment after state prosecution indicated that it is chasing some vital documents from some of the companies involved in the whole saga which it says would make its case stronger.
According to lawyer Matthew Amponsah, who represented the State, they are in touch with most of their witnesses who are originally out of the jurisdiction, adding that upon interaction with them they indicated that they have some vital documents which is of prime importance to the case.
He further indicated that it is for this reason they would want to bring down these witnesses and who are in possession of these documents which he believes can fortify the State's prosecution processes against Mr. Woyome.
The court at the last sitting discharged its first prosecution witness, Mangowa Ghanney who is a lawyer at the Ministry of Finance.
Lawyers of Mr. Woyome had also tendered in several letters to debunk claims that there was no contract with the State.
