Nine out of the 53 Democracy Hub demonstrators who were arrested and dragged to court over alleged lawlessness have been granted bail.
The court granted bail, each set at GH₵70, 000 with two sureties.
They are required to report to the police once a week and deposit their Ghana cards at the court registry as part of their bail conditions.
The bail was granted following an appeal against an earlier ruling by the circuit court, which denied bail to the nine individuals.
The nine and 44 others were arrested during a protest against illegal mining.
They have been charged with unlawful assembly, unlawful damage, assaulting a public officer, and offensive conduct conducive to breaching the peace.
The nine who have been granted bail are Ama Governor, a private legal practitioner,
The other eight individuals granted bail include Emmanuel Gyan, Emmanuel Kwabena Addo, Ziblim Yakubu, Oheneba Prempeh, Philip Owusu Kobina, Desmond Akisbik, Von Coffie, and Sadik Yakubu.
