Abesim murder case: Prime suspect to be charged with manslaughter

The prime suspect in the Abesim murder case is to be charged with manslaughter.

This was suggested by a report presented to the Kaneshie District court where the case is being heard.

A report presented to the court by Chief Inspector Anane suggested the release of the second accused person in the case.

Further to the above, the prosecutor suggested that the charge of the prime suspect be reduced to manslaughter per the progress of the investigation.

The prime suspect, Richard Appiah prayed the court to grant him bail in order for him to train since he is a footballer.

On his part, the presiding judge called on the Attorney General to present an update on the case on the next adjourned date.

He also tasked the prime suspect to rather get counsel to file an appeal to a higher court for his plea to be heard.

The court has meanwhile adjourned the case to April 28, 2022, after it bailed the second accused person per the report.

The prime suspect, Richard Appiah is accused of killing and keeping the bodily parts of two children in a refrigerator.
