Mohammed Kwame <\/strong><\/p>\n

A 28-YEAR-OLD scrap collector, who stole police
\nmotorcycle at police barracks at Malejor near Oyibi, has been sentenced to 18 months
\nin jail in hard labour.<\/p>\n

Mohammed Kwame, who resides at Agbogbloshie in
\nAccra, was charged with stealing and causing unlawful damage when he was put
\nbefore the Dodowa Magistrate Court presided over by Gloria Naa Botor Laryea.<\/p>\n

He pleaded guilty and was convicted accordingly
\non his own plea. <\/p>\n

The court explained that for the fact that Kwame
\nwas able to steal from police barracks, he was being given a deterrent sentence.<\/p>\n

Sergeant John Brahene, prosecutor in the case,
\nnarrated to the court that Mohammed Kwame, together with his accomplice named
\nonly as Razak, who is still at large, stole the police motorcycle with
\nregistration number GP 4818.<\/p>\n

He was, however, arrested when riding the
\nmotorcycle in Accra.<\/p>\n

On August 17, 2019 at about 4:00 am, the police
\nofficer after night patrol sparked the motorcycle at rented quarters at
\nMalejor. <\/p>\n

On the same day at about 4:30 am, another
\npoliceman who was also on a motorcycle patrol duty along the Dodowa-Adenta
\nroad, spotted Mohammed riding the motorcycle with Razak sitting behind him.<\/p>\n

The police officer became suspicious and
\nfollowed them. On reaching a section of the road at Opeibea in Accra, he
\nsignaled them to stop and arrested Mohammed but Razak managed to escape. <\/p>\n

With the assistance of a military patrol team,
\nthey escorted Mohammed together with the motorcycle to the Airport Police
\nStation where Mohammed admitted the offence and mentioned Razak as his
\naccomplice.<\/p>\n

Mohammed then led police to where they stole
\nthe motorcycle. He was handed over to the Malejor police together with the
\nmotorcycle for further investigation.<\/p>\n

Investigations revealed that the suspects cut
\nthe ignition key with a sharp object, causing damage to the starter valued at
\nGH\u00a2200.<\/p>\n
