- The trial, in which NAM 1 is accused of 39 offenses, including money laundering, deceiving by false pretense, violating Act 930, and fraudulent breach of trust, is scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m. today, October 27.
- However, more than a hundred patrons flocked to the courtroom hours ahead of the scheduled trial time, eagerly anticipating the case to be called.
- A large number of patrons had taken up seats intended for attorneys. Justice Agbenorsi of Graphic Online claims that some of them had to be ejected by force by the police.
- Meanwhile, some of the Menzgold customers who thronged the High Court expressed disappointment when the Judge, after considering both arguments, adjourned the case to November 17.
- An aggrieved customer said on Friday, “The number of people who have died as a result of the Menzgold scandal is pathetic. And because of that, when we come to court and see how this guy talks and behaves, it makes some of us very upset. That is why I was upset with the fact that this guy shows no sign of remorse or regret.”
