Social Activist and Private Legal Practitioner, Oliver Barker Vormawor has urged the state to release Sedina Tamakloe.
According to him, if the state wants a scapegoat in the matter, it should be dealing with the prosecutors who did shoddy work on the matter.
His reaction comes after the attorney general withdrew their stay of execution before the Court of Appeal and filed it in the Supreme Court.
“The Republic has no reason and basis to keep holding on to Sedina. Release the woman. If we need a scapegoat; the people who did the shoddy job are still at the AG’s department. Focus on them. The DPP must accept responsibility and resign for the absolutely terrible job done!”.
He urged lawyers for Sedina Tamakloe to file a Habeas Corpus immediately indicating that “I see no reason why Sedina should become some cause célèbre because the Attorney-General is refusing to accept that his predecessor and team did a terrible prosecution”.

I hear the AG’s have withdrawn their stay of execution before the court of appeal in the Sedina matter and filed it in the Supreme Court. As a result they have been given 13th October as a date for the hearing.
I am disappointed.

Her lawyers must file a Habeas Corpus immediately. Something I wish they had done earlier.
I see no reason why Sedina should become some cause célèbre because the Attorney-General is refusing to accept that his predecessor and team did a terrible prosecution.
Let her go. The way forward now is to recover our money for us. Use the civil processes.
Else, Democracy Hub (Ghfixthecountry) will definitely sue her and Obantaanpa for the GHs 500,000, the whereabouts of which we still don’t know.
Shalom
