According to the Attorney General (AG), other materials such as the gallon containing the sulphuric acid, the burnt clothing of the deceased, substances retrieved from his vehicle, all contained the same sulphuric acid.
This was contained in a 28-paragraph affidavit in opposition to the application for bail filed at the court by lawyers for Gregory.
It said the “clothing of the applicant (Gregory) which was retrieved and sent for forensic examination, disclosed that the clothing was laced with sulphuric acid.”
The affidavit, filed at the Accra Human Rights Court on July 28, 2015, further disclosed that the final report on the wound on Gregory’s leg was yet to be released.
Gregory and Musah, are before the Accra Central Magistrate Court for allegedly intentionally and unlawfully causing the death of Adams on May 20, 2015 at Bolgatanga in the Upper East Region.
According to the police, Musah, who is a member of the NPP, on 19 May, 2015, solicited and procured the deadly acid which he gave to other two suspects who in turn poured the acid on Adams.
Asabke Alangdi, the third accused has been on the run together with his wife, leaving behind their one-and-a-half-year-old baby.
Gregory is facing charges of conspiracy and murder.
The plea of the two has not been taken.
Musah, a driver who is being tried for abetment of crime in respect of the case, was recently admitted to bail in the sum of GHC20,000 with four sureties.
