Three men between the ages of 19 and 26 had been sentenced to 50 years each in hard labour by a Kumasi Circuit Court for robbing a taxi driver of his Opel taxi cab.<\/p>\n
All the convicts, John Quaison, alias Kwaku Agyei, a 19-year old loading boy, Frank Osei Wusu, 20, a driver\u2019s mate and Kwabena Adu Gyamfi, alias Kokromoti, 26, driver pleaded not guilty to the charge
of conspiracy and robbery.<\/p>\n
Police Inspector Philip Yao Bebli prosecuting told the Court presided over by Mr Justice Emmanuel Amoh-Yartey that the complainant, Kwasi Owusu is a driver whilst the convicts are friends. He said on May 10, 2011, at about 00:30 hours, Owusu, driving the car with registration number AS1290 Y, was hired by the three when he got to Abrepo-Junction to send them to Amakom, near the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.<\/p>\n
On reaching a spot close to the Stadium, Quaison, who was seated behind the complainant, pulled a knife, and started struggling with him (Owusu) to get him out of the car. Prosecution said for fear of his life the complainant gave in after receiving a deep cut on the left fourth finger and Gyamfi took control of the steering wheel after they had pushed him out of the car.<\/p>\n
Gyamfi then pulled a locally manufactured pistol and threatened to shoot Owusu if he dared raised an alarm, and they sped-off.<\/p>\n
The complainant managed to report the case to the Asokwa Police and
during investigating they had a call from their colleagues in Kwahu-Mpraeso in the Eastern Region that the three had been arrested with the vehicle. After further police investigations, the three were processed and put before the court.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
