An Accra High Court has rescinded its ruling on the Interim Injunction granted on 25th October, 2023 in relation to the funeral of the late Ga Manye, Naa Dedei Omaedru III.
The Ga Manye who died in December 2022 is scheduled to be buried this weekend per the arrangements of the funeral planning committee as approved by the Ghana Traditional Council.
However, her family has opposed portions of the said plans stating that they have not been involved in the process as they ought to per the Ga tradition.
Aggrieved by this, the family secured a restraining order from the High Court to stop the funeral rite of the Ga Manye.
The High Court judge, Justice Patrick Baayeh, who granted the order of interim injunction subsequently said the order was an error.
Delivering the ruling on Thursday, October 26, Justice Baayeh said: “I am of the view that the Order of Interim Injunction granted on 25th October 2023 was made in error. The Applicants failed to give the Court the true state of affairs.
“In fairness to the parties, therefore, the Order of Interim Injunction granted on 25th October 2023 is hereby set aside. Any party desirous of proceeding may come on notice to the other party for a proper evaluation of the evidence from both sides.”
