ashid Agbo, who is being held on robbery charges

Suspect smears himself with faeces to avoid trial
Proceedings at the Ashaiman circuit court was
Monday halted for two hours after a-19-year old
accused person who was to appear before it eased
and smeared himself with the faeces in the holding
cell.

Rashid Agbo, who is being held on robbery charges,
was believed to have done that to present himself
as a deranged person.

The situation compelled the trial judge, Mr
Gabriel Mate-Teye, to suspend proceedings to allow
the prosecutor and other officers to put the
situation under control for the trial to
continue.

Agbo is alleged to have robbed one Mr. Stephen
Kodjo Ofori, a production reporter at Tema Steel
Works, of a Nokia, Samsung and M-horse smart
phones worth Ghc70, Ghc130 and Ghc 300
respectively.

The prosecutor, ASP D. Otchere, said the suspect
and his accomplice, Micheal Agbavi who is at
large, on 17th April 2017, at about 8:00pm,
allegedly attacked the complainant on his way home
with his girlfriend.

He said the complainant spotted the accused person
a day after the incident and with the help of his
brothers arrested and handed him over to the
police.

The court remanded Agbo into police custody and
adjourned the case to the 4th of May 2017 to allow
the police intensify its investigation to arrest
other alleged accomplice.
