Herald Newspaper Editor appeals seven-day jail sentence for contempt

The Managing Editor of The Herald newspaper, Larry Dogbe, has filed an appeal against the seven-day custodial sentence imposed on him by the High Court for contempt of court. Mr Dogbe is asking the Court of Appeal to overturn both his conviction and sentence, declare the interlocutory injunction order at the centre of the case invalid, or alternatively replace the custodial sentence with a non-custodial penalty.
