Presided over by Judge Sedinam Awo Kwadam, the court cleared Mensah of two charges of defrauding by false pretence at the conclusion of his trial. Mensah had been accused of obtaining GH¢12,000 from Francisca Dosu and GH¢11,350 from Sandra Tetteh under the guise of securing them positions within the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS). Following the announcement of Mensah's acquittal, Dosu, unable to recover her money from her former partner, broke down in tears. The court ruled that the prosecution had failed to substantiate the charges against Mensah, stating that a conviction based on the evidence presented would have been unjust. The court noted that the prosecution did not provide concrete evidence, such as documents or text messages, to support its claims, and dismissed the charges as based merely on "romantic conversations." The court further observed that Mensah had engaged in romantic relationships with both complainants and had falsely promised to help them gain entry into the GIS despite being fully aware that he was only a steel bender.
