The Amasaman High Court has refused Nana Agradaa’s application for bail but granted her appeal application. This means that while Agradaa will not be released on bail pending the appeal, her lawyers can proceed with challenging the conviction and sentence.
Evangelist Mama Pat, also known as Nana Agradaa, appeared before the Amasaman High Court. Her lawyer sought bail pending an appeal against her 15-year prison sentence, but the judge denied the request.
Appeal Proceedings
Agradaa’s lawyers, led by Richard Asare Baffour, will present their arguments to the court, focusing on the alleged flaws in the trial and the perceived bias of the presiding judge. The prosecution will also have the opportunity to respond to these claims.
Next Steps
The court will review the appeal and consider the arguments presented by both sides. If the appeal is successful, Agradaa’s conviction and sentence could be overturned or modified. If the appeal is unsuccessful, the original sentence will stand.
Ongoing Developments
The case continues to attract attention, with many following the developments closely. The outcome of the appeal will be significant, not only for Agradaa but also for the broader community.
