I have already written to the police for a copy for the police report and I believe they are working on it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs soon as we get the final police report we\u2019ll bring a civil action in court and as for liquidated damages not only for the current injuries he suffered but for the loss of the opportunity to box into the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe court will be looking at how many boxing years he has left, how much potentially he would have made, if a good boxer, what prospects he had to be a world champion or to advance forward and these are the things which will be taken into account in calculating what damages he will be awarded,\u201d he added.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n So we want to make it clear that we haven\u2019t abandoned him and there is a civil action we want to pursue on his behalf, very soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The amount from the ministry catered for the surgery while GHC 4000 out of Hon Nii Lantey Vanderpuye\u2019s donation was used for some other medical expenses. The remaining GHC10,000 was presented to the boxer.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 57 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sports News of Wednesday, 2 August 2017 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2017-08-02 Peter Zwennes has vowed to take civil action against the Ghana Police Service &#13; Ghana Boxing Authority President, Peter Zwennes has vowed to take civil action against the Ghana Police Service, on behalf of boxer disabled boxer, Isaac Aryee.
