The third accused person in the Ambulance Purchase Trial, Richard Jakpa, has insisted that the Attorney-General (A-G) pressured him to adopt a specific theory during the prosecution to make his case.
Mr Jakpa claimed that the A-G was adamant about framing the narrative in a way that supported their case, rather than presenting an impartial view.
He stated that the A-G’s theory was not only suggested, but strongly impressed upon him.
He emphasized that he felt coerced into aligning his testimony with the A-G’s perspective, which he believed compromised the integrity of the investigation.
This assertion has added a new dimension to the trial, raising questions about the fairness and objectivity of the prosecution’s approach.
In the recording, the A-G can be heard urging Mr Jakpa to adopt a particular stance, which the accused now claims, was intended to manipulate the outcome of the trial.
Jakpa’s insistence on the A-G’s undue influence has prompted calls for a thorough review of the prosecution’s methods.
