Potape said it took him seven months in Bomana, through a successful Supreme Court appeal and a re-trial to be finally freed from criminal charges today.
“It is a relief for me and my family, my deputy governor, all my supporters and friends. The judge threw out the case because primary materials were obtained that were without proper search warrant and prosecution fell short proving the case,” he said to media outside court after the decision.
And he thanked his lawyer for winning the case through his Supreme Coyrt appeal and now the trial.
