Justice Akua Tagoe, the presiding Judge on August 16, 2018, ordered the posting of a copy of the writ of summons at one of the known residences of Paintsil after several failed attempts since May 15, 2018.

The court also instructed the plaintiff to leave a copy of the writ of summons to any adult of sound mind at the defendant’s residence and also post a copy on the notice board of the Court.

According to Boateng, Paintsil denied owing him money because he used the $20,000 he borrowed from him to gamble at the camp and since he lost in the gamble, there is no way he will refund the money.

Derek Boateng on the other hand, indicated that since he wasn’t part of the gambling, John Paintsil should at all cost ‘cough’ his $20,000 with interest to him.
