Two convicted for selling Fake Gold
A Dunkwa Magistrate Court presided over by His
Worship Faestus Fovi Nukunu has sentenced two
persons to a day’s imprisonment for defrauding
one Kwadwo Asiamah to the tune of Ten Thousand
Ghana cedis (GH¢ 10,000.00) by selling fake gold
to him at Diaso in the Central Region.
The suspects Francis Queson and Ebenezer Koffie
were made to pay an additional sum of
GH¢1,200.00 cedis each to the state or in default
serve an additional 12-month jail term.
A freelance journalist in the area Gabriel Bediako
reports that the victim who is a gold dealer
reported the case to the police when he realised
that the substance sold to him was not real gold.
In the Judgment, the court ordered the accused
persons to refund the GH¢ 10,000.00 cedis to the
victim.
They were charged with conspiracy to commit crime
and defrauding by false pretence. Source - Ultimate1069.com
