The prosecutor said, the complainant is a trader, residing at New Bortianor. Akosua Agyapong and Agyeman reside at Tuba and Weija respectively.
She said "Later Akosua introduced Agyemang to the businessman as her brother who had a one plot of land opposite the West Hills Mall for sale. The businessman after inspecting the land showed interest."
She added that Akosua Agyapong told the businessman that Agyemang was the owner of the land adding that they later took the businessman to the Lands Commission to confirm if the land is genuine.
The prosecutor said the businessman paid GH¢105,000 for the land and later gave a Toyota RAV 4 vehicle valued at GH¢100,000 to Agyemang for another plot of land.
