NDC supporters hold vigil for Montie trio

Vigil for Montie 3

Newly formed pressure group Free Montie 3 Movement, formed to start a public campaign to get the trio freed is organising a candlelight vigil tonight (Thursday, July 28) at premises of Radio Gold in Laterbiokoshie.

The notice announcing the viigil said “All friends of free speech, fairness and justice are invited to the premises of Radio Gold at 7 pm Thursday, 28th July 2016 to kick-start a mass campaign to free Mugabe Maase, Godwin Ako Gunn and Alistair Nelson.”

A convener of the group Owula Mangortey said they are hopeful President Mahama will evoke article 72 of the constitution when continuous pressure is mounted .

Pressure has been mounting on President Mahama to exercise his prerogative powers of mercy to get the Montie trio released from jail.

“We are seeking and expecting immediately a presidential pardon for the three. We will not and cannot accept this despicable abuse of power by the judiciary at this important stage of our democratic experience.
