Wontumi’s lawyers secure second surety for GH₵50m bail – Nsemkeka
Lawyer for the embattled Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, has confirmed that all bail conditions have now been fully satisfied, but a fresh legal hurdle is preventing his client’s release.
Speaking to JoyNews’ Michael Ashaley exclusively on Friday, May 30, Andy Appiah-Kubi, who represents Chairman Wontumi, revealed that the GH¢50 million bail with two justified sureties has been met.
However, he stated that his client remains in the custody of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) due to a new court case filed against him on Friday.
