Ken Ofori-Atta's Lawyers Clarify No Court Hearing on February 19

Mid-March hearing expected after Ofori-Atta bond case stalls

Lawyers for former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta say a fresh court date in mid-March is now being considered for his bond application, after the February 19 sitting came and went without any substantive hearing. A member of the defence team, Frank Davies, said proceedings that day were reduced to a single procedural filing from the US Department of Justice — far short of the full hearing that had been anticipated.
