Killer Boss, have been charged with conspiracy to commit crime and fraudulent transaction of land.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution said the complainant in the case was a car dealer while Agyemang is a building contractor.<\/p>\n<p>According to Prosecution, in February last year, the businessman who was interested in a parcel of land where he could display his cars for sale contacted Akosua for assistance.<\/p>\n<p>The Prosecution said she told the businessman that she had a plot of land for rent, but the businessman wanted an outright sale.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution said Akosua later introduced Agyemang to the complainant as her brother, who had one plot of land opposite the West Hills Mall for sale.<\/p>\n<p>The businessman, after inspecting the land expressed interest.<\/p>\n<p>The Prosecution said Akosua assured the complainant that the land was genuine and that Agyemang was the rightful owner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey then took the businessman to the Lands Commission, went into one of the offices and came out with someone who confirmed that the land indeed belonged to Agyemang, and upon this, the businessman became convinced,\u2019\u2019 Prosecution said.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards, the prosecution said, the businessman paid GH\u00a2 105,000.00 for the land and later gave a Toyota RAV 4 vehicle costing GH\u00a2 100,000.00 to Agyemang for another plot of land.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the complainant went to work on the land, another person came to him claiming ownership of the land with the original documents. He reported the matter to the police leading to Akosua and Agyemang\u2019s arrest. Agyemang, through his uncle, has released the vehicle to the police,\u2019\u2019 Prosecution said.<\/p>\n<p>Akosua and Agyemang have pleaded not guilty and on bail in the sum of GH\u00a2 160,000.00 with three sureties, one of whom is to be justified.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 65 updated by: 65 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Wednesday, 31 January 2018 Source: Graphic.com.gh 2018-01-31 Akosua Agyapong has been accused of conspiring with her brother to defraud a man of GH\u00a2105,000 An Accra Circuit Court has ordered both the accused and the complainant who are standing trial over GH\u00a2 105, 000 land transaction deal to desist from verbally assaulting each other [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":427465,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-460083","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/460083","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=460083"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/460083\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=460083"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=460083"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=460083"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
