Delta Force 8 remanded

The Kumasi Circuit Court 2 has remanded eight members of the Delta Force, a pro-NPP vigilante group, for attacking the Kumasi Circuit Court 1 last Thursday.

The group, stormed the court where the 13 members were facing prosecution for the attack on the Ashanti Regional Security Coordinator, George Agyei, a few weeks ago, vandalising court properties and verbally assaulting the presiding judge, Mary Nsenkyire before freeing their colleagues.

The Ashanti Regional Police Command, after the incident, swiftly moved to arrest these eight suspects who were believed to have been part of the raiding act.

Appearing before the Kumasi Circuit Court 2 presided over Patricia Amponsah, their lawyer, Gary Nimako pleaded for a bail for his clients but the presiding judge refused and remanded them to reappear on April, 18.

According to Mr Nimako, his clients were not part of the group that stormed the court and were arrested at Fante New Town, a suburb of Kumasi.
