The High Court will today Wednesday, 16 March 2022 give a verdict on the bail application of the #Fixthecountry convener, Oliver Barker-Vormawor.
The activist has been charged with instigating the overthrow of constitutional government organs, but he has refuted the charges and stated that he is willing to stand trial.
On 11 February 2022, he was detained on charges of threatening to stage a coup if the government went ahead with the contentious Electronic Transaction Levy.
Mr. Barker-Vormawor opposed the claims in his bail application, claiming that the evidence against him cannot support a charge of criminal treason.
Despite the fact that, in an affidavit opposing the bail, the Attorney-General stated that the evidence revealed thus far supports a charge of treason felony against the activist.
Mr. Barker-Vormawor, on the other hand, has questioned why the Republic has not charged him or sought his statement on the charge.
Meanwhile, Oliver Mawuse-Barker Vormawor has told the Court, which is presided over by Justice Daniel Mensah, that he is in good health and wishes to be tried.
