Starr FM<\/em><\/strong> report, the\u00a0Office of the Attorney General (AG) in a process signed by Mrs. Evelyn Keelson, a Chief State Attorney, dropped the charge against her.<\/p>\nBut moments after she stepped out of the courtroom, she was whisked away by the police.<\/p>\n
Earlier this year, on January 17, Diamond Appiah was arrested and charged for an alleged fraudulent land transaction involving an amount of $30,000.<\/p>\n
Appiah, who is said to have sold a portion of land at East Legon Hills to Ayisha Modi for $30,000, was then granted bail in the sum of GH\u00a2300k after she pleaded not guilty to the charge.<\/p>\n
However in court on Monday, August 21, 2023, the Prosecutor, DSP Evans Kesse, told the court that, the docket was referred to the AG\u2019s office for advice.<\/p>\n
He said through that, a process was filed to withdraw the case.<\/p>\n
DSP Kesse consequently, said the case \u201cshall not continue\u201d per the process filed by Mrs. Evelyn Keelson.<\/p>\n
Counsel for the accused, for his part said, the Prosecution had no case against his client and it was not for anything that the law is used to fight justice.<\/p>\n
While intimating that the law is meant for justice, he said the action against his client was incompetent.<\/p>\n
The court, presided over by His Honour Mr. Isaac Addo, after listening to the arguments, acknowledged that such a process was filed and signed by a Chief State Attorney.<\/p>\n
He said, when such a process is filed, the accused person is entitled to be discharged.<\/p>\n
It was, however, not immediately clear why Diamond Appiah who was beaming was rearrested after being discharged.<\/p>\n
Ayisha Modi, who was the complainant in the matter, was present in court.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Background<\/strong><\/p>\nThe brief facts of the case as presented to the court by DSP Evans Kesse said complainant, Ayisha Modi, is a businesswoman and lives at Adjiringanor, Accra.<\/p>\n
The accused, Diamond Appiah, he said, is also a businesswoman and stays at East Legon.<\/p>\n
According to DSP Kesse, in 2020, the complainant needed a plot of land to purchase for a building purpose and was discussing it with one Johnson, a witness in this case.<\/p>\n
He said, the accused who overheard the conversation, jumped in and said she had a plot of land lying at East Legon Hills and could sell same to the complainant at a cheaper price.<\/p>\n
The Prosecutor said the accused demanded and collected cash, the sum of $30,000 from the complainant under the pretext of selling her one parcel of land lying at East Legon Hills.<\/p>\n
DSP Kesse said, the accused took the complainant to a land at East Legon Hills, and when the complainant later went to the land, she met one Gustav, who claimed ownership of the land.<\/p>\n
The Prosecutor said, the complainant made several attempts to retrieve her money from the accused person but she failed, and therefore made a report to the police and accused was arrested.<\/p>\n
He told the court that during investigation, it was established that the accused did not have any land at that location before she swindled the complainant.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn her investigation cautioned statement, she admitted the offence. After investigation, she was charged with the offence and brought before this Honourable Court,\u201d the Prosecutor told the court.<\/p>\n
