The third accused in the ambulance trial case, Richard Jakpa, has prayed the High Court to strike out the case against him.
He says the Attorney-General at whose instance he is being prosecuted brought the charges and instituted the proceedings in abuse of the process of the court and contrary to his constitutional obligations under Articles 23 and 296 of the 1992 Constitution.
He is also accusing the Attorney-General of abusing his prosecutorial powers contrary to the 1992 Constitution.
According to him the A-G has through his engagements with him (Jakpa) admitted that there is no case against him.
An application filed on his behalf by Sory @ law today is arguing that his continued prosecution violates his rights to a fair trial.
