A 34-year-old trader and mechanic, William Kessie, has been granted GH¢100,000 bail by the Dansoman Circuit Court in connection with an alleged iPhone fraud case. Kessie, who has pleaded not guilty to the charge of defrauding by false pretences, is accused of defrauding phone dealer Chester Donkor of 11 iPhones valued at GH¢134,500 under the pretext of selling them and returning the proceeds.
The court heard that Kessie collected the mobile phones from Donkor in August 2026, promising to sell them and return the proceeds, but instead used the money for his personal needs. The prosecution stated that Kessie admitted to selling the phones but not returning the money, and the case is expected to continue as investigations proceed.
