The Toase District Court in the Atwima Nwabiagya South Municipality of the Ashanti Region has remanded two friends into police custody for their alleged involvement in conspiracy, causing damage, and stealing at Manso-Nweneso.
The accused, Desmond Ayensu, 26, and Frank Osei Bonsu, 27, had their pleas not taken and are expected to reappear before the court on July 7, 2026.
Prosecuting, Police Chief Inspector Ntim Boadu told the court, presided over by Robert Addo, that both the complainant, Evander Frimpong, and the accused persons are residents of Nweneso.
He said the two suspects are small-scale miners, while the complainant is a businessman in the community.
According to the prosecution, the incident occurred on a Sunday in November 2025 when the complainant had gone to church. The accused persons allegedly conspired, broke into his room by dismantling a window, and stole GH¢60,000 in cash.
Chief Inspector Boadu further informed the court that Ayensu fled the town after the incident but was later arrested by police in Foase upon returning to the area in connection with another offence.
He added that in his caution statement, Ayensu admitted the theft and implicated Frank Osei Bonsu as his accomplice.
Following preliminary investigations, both suspects were formally charged and brought before the court for further proceedings.
