The Accra High Court has ruled that the case involving the Pharmacy Council and Daniel Owusu-Koranteng, a former executive secretary of the council, will proceed without interference. The court dismissed an application from the Pharmacy Council seeking to halt the proceedings, emphasizing that it is essential for the case to follow its natural course.
Daniel Owusu-Koranteng is facing allegations of misconduct related to his tenure at the Pharmacy Council. The council's request for a stay was based on claims that continuing with the case could undermine their operations and reputation. However, Justice Joseph Adu Owusu stated that halting legal proceedings would not serve justice and emphasized the importance of allowing due process.
The ruling signifies a commitment to uphold legal principles and ensure accountability within regulatory bodies. As the case unfolds, it highlights issues surrounding governance in public institutions and reinforces the judiciary's role in maintaining checks and balances within such entities.
