A Circuit Court in Accra on Wednesday adjourned to Monday, May 16, the case involving the management of Fan Milk Ghana Limited and William Swason, a lawyer.<\/p>\n
The accused was alleged to have defrauded the management of the company of GH\u00a2450,000, being the cost of a parcel of land
located at Kaneshie First Light, belonging to Madam Mercy Obeng.
He has since repaid GH\u00a250,000 of the amount.<\/p>\n
Police Superintendent Johnson Ganyo (Rtd), an employee of Fan Milk Ghana Limited, during cross-examination, told the court presided over by Romaine Abele Abbey that GH\u00a250 out of the GH\u00a250,000 paid was found to be fake.<\/p>\n
He said attempts to retrieve the remaining amount from the accused had proved futile because he had withdrawn almost all the money in his account.<\/p>\n
Sup. Ganyo (Rtd) said: \u201cWhen we checked, he had issued 73 cheques to individuals, men and women, and now has a little over GH\u00a280,000 left in his account\u201d.<\/p>\n
Sometime in June 2009, the accused approached Kwasi Attuah, Sales and Marketing Manager of Fan Milk Limited, over the parcel of land being offered for sale by Madam Obeng.<\/p>\n
Mr. Attuah linked the accused with the Legal Department of Fan Milk and began a sale process agreement after the management was sure that the land actually belonged to Madam Obeng.<\/p>\n
A price of GH\u00a2450,000 was agreed and the accused suggested that management should pay in two installments of GH\u00a2420,000 and GH\u00a230,000.<\/p>\n
On June 18, 2009, two cheques of the amount were issued by the management to the accused.<\/p>\n
After management had waited for a while for the accused to submit the legal documents covering the land and a signed document from Madam Obeng, it conducted its own investigations, during which Madam Obeng revealed that she had not authorised anyone to sell the parcel of land.<\/p>\n
Further investigations revealed that the accused had used the
money to purchase Griffonia seeds to be exported to China.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
