The families of two teenage girls who tragically lost their lives in a fatal accident at East Legon have expressed their dissatisfaction with the six-month sentencing of Bishop Salifu Amoako's 16-year-old son.
The sentencing, handed down by the Family and Juvenile Court in Accra, has sparked emotions and harsh criticism from the grieving families.
The juvenile, who initially pleaded not guilty, later changed his plea to guilty on eight charges, including manslaughter, negligent driving, dangerous driving, and operating a vehicle without a license.
Presiding Judge Bernice Mensimah Ackon sentenced him to six months at the Senior Correctional Centre, the maximum penalty allowed under Ghana's Juvenile Justice Act, 2003 (Act 653) for such offences.
