A farmer has been sentenced to five years in prison for keeping unregistered guns. The court ruling came after a full trial.

The man is 42 years old. He was found guilty of possessing firearms that were not legally registered.

The sentence includes hard labour. This means he will work as part of his punishment.

The case was heard at a circuit court in the Ashanti Region. The court reached its decision after carefully reviewing the evidence.

Possessing unregistered firearms is against the law. The sentence is intended to deter others from similar actions.
