A 40-year-old private security officer, Samuel Nortey Botchway, has been sentenced to 28 years imprisonment by an Accra Circuit Court for stealing a total of €5,740 from his workplace, the Head Office of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) at North Ridge.
The presiding judge, His Honour Isaac Addo, delivered the ruling at Circuit Court 2 in Accra on Wednesday, convicting Botchway on four counts — one of unlawful entry and three counts of stealing — all contrary to provisions of the Criminal Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29).
