An Accra Circuit Court has sentenced a 38-year-old bailiff, Kojo Budu Jackson, to four years in prison with hard labour for attempting to commit fraud using forged judicial documents.
Jackson was found guilty of falsifying a court order and a divorce certificate, allegedly issued by a retired magistrate of the Ejisu District Court in the Ashanti Region.
According to a report by graphiconline.com on July 12, 2025, Jackson initially pleaded not guilty to the charge of forging judicial service documents.
However, he changed his plea to guilty at the hearing last Tuesday, just as the prosecution was set to present its evidence.
