Amidu clashes with Deputy A-G over retrieval of €47.7 million Waterville Holdings judgement debt

There was drama in the Supreme Court Wednesday, when the Special Prosecutor, Mr Martin Amidu lost his cool.

MrAmidu accused a Deputy Attorney-General (A-G), MrGodfredYeboah Dame of disrespecting him and inferring that he was a liar.

The Deputy A-G had taken exception to what he described as the Special Prosecutor’s attempt to paint the A-G as not working to retrieve the €47.7 million judgement debt that the government illegally paid to Waterville Holdings.

According to the Deputy A-G, there was no evidence that the A-G had refused to cooperate with MrAmidu to enforce the order of the Supreme Court for the money to be retrieved.

He rather accused the Special Prosecutor of not cooperating with the A-G and leaking information to the media.

That did not go down well with the Special Prosecutor, who accused the Deputy A-G of disrespecting him and calling him a liar.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has dismissed MrAmidu’s application urging the court to compel the A-G to enforce the judgement for the money to be retrieved from Waterville.

According to a five-member panel of the court, MrAmidu’s application had no basis in rules of law or procedure.
