An Accra High Court presided over by Her Ladyship Audrey Kocuvie-Tay on July 29, 2024, cleared Tobinco of all allegations contrary to claims made by Dr Opuni.
The ruling comes after five years of legal battle which commenced on July 19, 2019.
The court ruled that the accusations were baseless and that the Dr. Opuni-led FDA constituted an abuse of power.
The court added it found evidence of coercion in obtaining confession statements from Elder Dr. Tobbin and Mr. Kamath, using documents prepared by the BNI with letterheads taken from Tobinco’s offices.
