Court rules on Dr. Ali-Gabass’ no case submission

An Accra Circuit Court will later this morning rule on the submission

of no case filed by lawyers of senior medical officer at the Efia

Nkwanta Regional Hospital, Dr. Sulley Ali-Gabass.

The medical officer is facing two counts of defiling a child under 16

years and having unnatural carnal knowledge, charges he has pleaded

not guilty to.

He was arrested in October last year after Joy News investigations

revealed his alleged sexual activities with the senior high school

boy.

The state prosecution has called five witnesses, including Joy FM's

Manasseh Azure Awuni who broke the story.

But lawyers for the accused say Dr Ali-Gabass has no case to

answer.The case will be struck out if the court rules in their

favour.They will, however, be expected to open a defence if the court

rejects the submission.
