An Accra Central District Court has summoned a state attorney in connection with the case involving the Chief Executive Officer for Bull Haus Entertainment, Nana Asiama Hanson, aka Bulldog.
The court wants him to come and explain some “codified” portions of the Attorney General’s advice which directed that the accused person be discharged.
Bulldog has been put before the court for allegedly murdering Fennec Okyere, a music producer in May 2014.
Chief Inspector Simon Apiorsornu, the prosecutor, told the court that the AG had advised that Bulldog be discharged to enable further investigations into the matter.
He said the advice has subsequently been directed to the Director General of the Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police Service.
Chief Inspector Apiorsornu could, however, not disclose the content of the AG’s advice since it was “codified”.
He said the Attorney General and the Director of CID had a conference regarding the case but the content of that communication is privileged under the Section 100 of the Evidence Act and can therefore not be filed in court.
The counsel for Bulldog, Jerry Avenorgbor, prayed the court to discharge and acquit his client since the prosecution could not reveal anything linking his client to the crime he is being accused of.
He lamented that his client had been coming to court over the last three and half years and the police cannot hide under the pretext that investigations are ongoing.
The court, presided over by Mr Worlanyo Kotoku, asked the court’s registry to summon state prosecutor Richard Gyambibi, who wrote the advice, to explain its content.
The case has been adjourned to October 12, 2017.
Bulldog, 36, is standing trial for his alleged involvement in the death of Fennec Okeyre.
He was picked up in 2014 at Kokomlemle, a suburb of Accra, as a prime suspect in Fennec Okyere’s death.

The problem with some Ghana police and some CID with respect to this case in particular is that, they can not provide any concrete evidence to crime unlike other countries that have fingerprint scans, forensic analysis, proper autopsy report analysis and others that help in investigations. Ours in Ghana is based on a tip offs. Where is the evidence? Where is the scientific evidence to proof a crime? Proof it and end the case. If you are having difficulty ask Americans or the British for help. This case has taken too long!!!!!!
He will discharged and rearrested mark my words, don't forget the minister,the adopted mother of fennec. BULLDOG is in deep trouble.
You can hide from everybody but you cannot hide from the ultimate judge who sits on the throne. One day we will all know who killed the gentleman
