The Human Rights Court, on Tuesday, November 25, 2025, dismissed an application filed by former Finance Minister, Kenneth Ofori-Atta, seeking leave to amend his writ and obtain discovery.
Mr. Ofori-Atta’s move formed part of a series of legal steps challenging his designation as a wanted person and the arrest warrant on which that designation was based.
The Court, however, held that the documents requested were unnecessary, and accordingly dismissed the application.
In addition, the Court awarded costs of GHS 5,000 against the applicant, citing a waste of the Court’s time.
The substantive ruling on the request to amend the original writ has been adjourned to December 12, 2025.
