His lawyers are seeking his release from custody while he pursues an appeal against his conviction and 20-year prison sentence for illegal mining-related offenses linked to a concession at Samreboi in the Western Region.

The court clerk subsequently informed the parties that the presiding judge was unavailable for the remainder of the week, resulting in the matter being rescheduled for today.
