The Attorney General has filed an appeal seeking to overturn the case it lost against the two principal organizers of Ghana's 50th independence anniversary.
About a fortnight ago, an Accra high court struck out a case of causing financial loss the AG brought against the two former officials.
The court discharged the former Chief of Staff Kwadwo Mpiani and CEO of the defunct Ghana @ Secretariat Dr. Charles Wereko-Brobbey.
It held that it was wrong for the state to press criminal charges against them using evidence from the commission of inquiry set up by President Mills.
Lawyers for the two men hailed the decision as a victory for democracy contending also that the case was fundamentally closed.
But the AG disagreed and served notice of her intention to appeal. She did just that on Friday at the court of appeal.
Gertrude Aikins the Director of Prosecutions told Joy News they are seeking to overturn the decision by the High Court.
