Alfred Agbesi Woyome
The prosecutor took further steps to sell the funeral homes of the Democratic National Congress (NDC), Alfred Agbesi Woyome, to finance the 51.2 million GH ¢ he had fraudulently received as debt.
The Attorney General's office filed a petition to the Supreme Court on Friday to determine the price reserved for three of its residential properties, which the state sells by public auction.
It was the application of the Supreme Court ruling that ordered the state to sell Woyome's properties after Woyome tried to hide some of them on behalf of the defunct UT Bank.
Adoption of the reserved price
The adoption of the reserved prize filed by the Deputy Attorney General, Godfred Yeboah Dame, will determine the lowest price for which each of the identified residential properties must be sold.
The three properties – two located in Trasacco Valley and one in Kpehe, Caprice, all located in Accra – were badessed by the Land Commission as a result of a request from the Clerk of the Supreme Court.
Daily checks show that this is the first set of sales of Woyome properties. His career in the East Region and a building in East Legon, which houses his company Anator Holding, will be evaluated soon.
According to an affidavit in support of the reserved price request, the Land Commission badesses the three properties at 21,368,000.
However, the state may not be able to obtain GHG 21,368,000 for properties due to a revaluation of properties that imposed a forced sale value of the three properties at 14,957. 000 GH ¢, which represents the lowest amount for the state. the sale of the three mansions.
According to the re-evaluation carried out by the Land Commission, each of the two townhouses located in the Trasacco Valley in Accra has a market value of GH ¢ 11,099,000 with a forced sale value of GH7,769,000 and 6,407,000. GH ¢ 4,485,000 GH.
The third, located in Kpehe, Accra, where Woyome itself is said to reside, has a market value of GH ¢ 3 862 000 and a forced sale value of GH 2 703 000.
Sale of properties
The Supreme Court presided over by a single judge, Judge Alfred A. Benin, ordered the state last month to sell four properties of the beleaguered businessman Alfred Woyome in order to pay off the debt that he had fraudulently contracted.
Woyome then collaborated with the defunct UT Bank to conceal the properties in the state, as discovered by the court.
African court
Prior to the Supreme Court ruling, Woyome had appeared before the Arusha, Tanzania-based African Court of Human and Peoples' Rights, where he had filed a lawsuit against Ghana alleging discrimination and violations of its fundamental rights.
However, in a unanimous decision, the court dismissed the motion, stating that Woyome's right to non-discrimination, equality before the law, equal protection of the law and his right to be heard by a impartial tribunal had not been violated.
Payment plan
Mr. Woyome has since promised to challenge the single judge's decision by asking for a review in the Supreme Court.
He said, however, that if the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights ordered the payment of the money, it would sit down with the state and propose a payment plan.
