Human Rights Division of the Accra High Court has adjourned to June 2, 2014, the case in which DSP Gifty Mawuenyega Tehoda is suing the Ghana Police Service for the wrongful termination of her appointment among other reliefs.
Joy Fm’s Evans Mensah was in court on Tuesday with copies of an interview with COP Rose Bio Atinga which lawyers of Gifty Tehoda are presenting as evidence.
But the court could not hear the evidence as a CD player was not available.
In an interview with Citi News, lawyer for DSP Tehoda, E. A Voduagu stated that the said interview with COP Rose Bio Atinga was once played in court as evidence “however, when it came to a stage where he had to leave a copy with the court, he was not having enough copies.”
The court therefore, ordered Mr. Mensah to make enough copies for the court but when the copies were brought to court, a CD player was not available to play back the interview.
Lawyer Voduagu told Citi News, the court has ordered them to make available a CD player during the next court sitting “so that we can play the CD to the hearing of everybody and at that stage, we can tender it in as evidence.
The case involving DSP Tehoda began on September 27, 2011 when one Nana Ama Martin’s was arrested for possessing large parcels suspected to be cocaine which later turned into bicarbonate or baking soda.
DSP Tehoda was linked to the deal for which reason she was interdicted and subsequently dismissed from the Ghana Police Service as Deputy Commander in charge of the Commercial Crimes Unit of the Ghana Police Service.
