The Human Rights Division of the High Court in Accra has put an injunction on the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP ) from arresting a former Secretary of the defunct Inter Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM), Charles Bissue.
The interim injunction, which will be in force for 10 days follows an application filed by lawyers of Mr Bissue.
According to the court, presided over by Justice Nicholas Abodakpi, the interim injunction also restrains the OSP from executing an arrest warrant against Mr Bissue, publishing notice declaring him as wanted and applying for further warrant of arrest within the 10 day period.
Hearing of the substantive case continues on June 22, 2023.
