Three security face trial over missing diapers

A case where 3 security persons are in court for allegedly stealing diapers and other things have been adjourned to July 19, 2018 by an Accra Circuit Court.

One of the accused persons, Philip Tettey pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to commit crime and stealing.

However, when the charges were read to the other two only known as Amidu and Mohammed’s, their pleas were not taken because they claim they can better understand Mamprusi language.

The court will seek an interpreter to that effect.
