Legal practitioner, Frank Davies, has said owners and directors of Montie FM could be given a prison term or a fine after the Supreme Court found the station and three others guilty of contempt.
Some legal practitioners have argued that the directors and not the owners of Montie FM should be the ones facing contempt charges along with the three others.

But speaking on Accra-based Joy FM, Monday, Mr Davies said “the discretion is entirely theirs [Judges]. They can decide to convict them [owners], they can decide to fine them.”
He explained that as far as the Supreme Court hauled the owners, directors, and the three others before it for contempt, they are all liable for sentencing.
The Supreme Court of Ghana on Monday, found the alleged contemnors in the Montie FM case guilty.

The alleged contemnors include two panellists, Godwin Ako Gunn and Alistair Nelson, talk show host Mugabe, as well as owners of Montie FM based in Accra.
The accused were found guilty for scandalizing the court, defying and lowering the authority of the court and bringing it into disrepute by the court presided over by Justice Sophia Akuffo.
Lawyers for the three however pleaded with the court to temper justice with mercy.
The case has been adjourned to July 27 for sentencing.
