Lawyer for the lebanese supervisor alleges victim's face was rather dipped in onion paste

Marwako victim’s face was dipped in onion paste, not pepper – Counsel
Safo Agyei, lawyer for Lebanese supervisor Chaaban
Jihad, who allegedly dipped the face of Ghanaian
kitchen staffer Evelyn Boakye into pepper paste at
Marwako Fast Food’s Abelenkpe branch, has said
the victim’s face was shoved into onion paste.

On Monday March 20, he told an Accra District
Court where Chaaban is standing trial for assault
that the victim of the alleged assault was
blending onion, not pepper, when the incident
occurred.

Accra News’ Ama Brako, who was in court,
reported that the claim of the lawyer attracted
murmurs from the courtroom, with some indicating
that onions produce a more burning sensation than
pepper.

The reporter further said that after hearing the
argument of the defence counsel, trial judge
Victoria Akua Guanza adjourned the case to March
22 for another hearing.

Chaban was granted bail when he returned to court
on Thursday 16 March. The Ghana Police Service has
assured that justice would be served.
