Do, how would the prosecutors feel? Sometimes, it's not all about scientific evidence but intuition as well. God grant this man a fresh start like Job, in the bible.

I sincerely believe you might not be part of the gang but knew that Ata Ayi was an armed robber. Yet, because he patronised you, you failed to report him to the police, thereby playing a role in aiding and abetting. Mind you, being acquitted of a crime through a legal battle does not mean you didn't commit the crime. Sometimes a mere technicality can reverse a previous verdict of a court. Occasionally, out of pity, a judge may show clemency to an accused or convicted person. Furthermore, those with the ability to argue a legal position may even turn black to white, and the law will accept it as white, when in reality, it is black. This suggests that you might not be innocent; if not, I am quite sure your lawyer would have proceeded to sue the state for compensation. However, understanding the situation, he may have advised you to accept things as they are and to "let sleeping dogs lie."

I wonder why this story started with wrongful conviction and didn't end with compensation. In correct legal compensation, the lawyer should sue the state for compensation unless he was acquitted and discharged out of clemency.

Just being discharged for wrongful imprisonment for that long without suing for compensation beats my imagination. Or is his lawyer cooling off to enable him first celebrate his acquittal then proceed with compensation process?

You deserve to be compensated by the government. You need to contact a lawyer who can move forward with a lawsuit for compensation. Do not try to deal the authorities by yourself, for you will get screwed a second time.

This is very unfortunate, these things happens everywhere in the world and I don’t know why. Many innocent people are being thrown into prison and others even killed and tortured due to wrong investigation and prosecution. Wasting someone life for over twenty years in jail for nothing. In Ghana he wouldn’t get any compensation the government can not even afford to pay pensioners and let alone a prisoner he’s now going to rebuild his life again with no capital.what about his reputation and dignity it’s hard really.
