Unemployed man jailed 10 years for attempted robbery
An unemployed man who attacked a mobile money vendor with a machete in an attempt to rob him of GH¢40,000 has been sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment.
Unemployed man Kwame Agyapong, also known as Michael Osei, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for attempting to rob a mobile money vendor with a machete. The Adenta Circuit Court convicted Agyapong after a trial, where prosecutors presented witness testimony and other evidence proving their case beyond reasonable doubt. Agyapong pleaded not guilty during the trial.
The sentences for attempted robbery and causing harm will run concurrently. The court deducted the time Agyapong spent in custody before his trial from his sentence.
