Caprice robbery: Pregnant women, 4 others remanded - Adomonline.com

The prosecution, led by Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Seth Frimpong, opposed a bail appeal, saying if accused persons were granted bail, they would hamper investigations.   

ASP Frimpong said the Police needed Emmanuella, the third accused person, married to Ikenna, currently at large, for more information. 

ASP Emmanuel Haligah, another prosecutor, told the court that the Police, at the peril of their lives managed to arrest the accused persons and that they had extended investigations into other places because some of the accused persons were said to belong to a group of robbers who allegedly travelled to Ghana to rob and leave the jurisdiction. 

Nana Asare said there were no indications that any of the accused persons took part in the said robbery incident. 

The prosecution said the victim informed the Police that the robbers took her GH₵370,000 which she had earlier cashed from the Standard Chartered Bank, West Hills Mall branch on the day of the incident. 

It said police intelligence revealed that the “suspects before this honourable court and others were involved in the crime and it emerged that they were at a hideout at Buduburam.” 

It said the police had received information that Ikenna was hiding in Nigeria, and that he had sent money – GH₵1,300 – as transportation for his wife (Emmanuella) to join him in Nigeria.
