The presiding judge, Aboagye Tandoh, said the convict who had admitted the offence, would be sentenced on his own guilty plea.
The lawyer for the accused Andrew Kudjo Vortia had earlier pleaded with the judge to deal leniently with his client because he (client) did not waste the time of the court.
