Zanetor challenged to produce Voter’s ID card in court

The ongoing court battle between Dr. Zanetor
Agyeman Rawlings and Nii Armah Ashietey has taken
a dramatic turn as the Plaintiff (Nii Armah
Ashietey) has requested the 2nd Defendant (Zanetor
Rawlings) to provide further and better
particulars, by affidavit, regarding her voter
identification number, date of registration,
registration centre name and code.


This current twist to the ongoing court case was
contained in a letter signed by Gary Maafo, lawyer
of Nii Armah Ashietey, and addressed to Zanetor
Rawlings to provide this information within 4 days
which elapsed Monday March 28, 2016.

The Plaintiff has subsequently filed a Motion on
Notice – Application for Leave to Issue
Interrogatories under Order 22 r 1 of CI.47, and
will move that motion on notice on 4th April for
Zanetor Rawlings to provide the said particulars.

The new development became necessary after lawyers
of Nii Armah Ashietey probed the Statement of
Defence by Zanetor Rawlings in which she denied
the Plaintiffs averment that the she is not a
registered voter.

This means that notwithstanding confirmation from
the Electoral Commission (EC), the 2nd
Defendant’s filed court processes indicate that
she is holding herself out as a registered voter,
a situation that raises issues of fraud and
perjury.

The current motion was filed by Nii Armah Ashietey
under Order 11 Rule 12 (6) of the High Court Civil
Procedure Rules CI 47.
