A trader accused of collecting GH¢402,000 from 97 unsuspecting individuals under the pretext of securing them jobs in the security services has been jailed for five years.
Dorcas Twene Amankwa, 28, was found guilty at the end of the trial by a circuit court in Accra, presided over by Mrs Evelyn Asamoah.
Amankwa was earlier held on charges of defrauding by false pretences.
The prosecution said the complainant, Michael Amoah, was an Immigration Officer, and the accused, now a convict, both resided at Nsawam in the Eastern Region.
