An Accra Circuit Court has sent a man to prison for three years. This decision came after he admitted to stealing GH¢100,000.
The court heard that the man took the money. He did not deny this when asked.
He pleaded guilty to the charge of stealing. This meant the court already knew he committed the crime.
As part of the punishment, the court ordered the return of the full GH¢100,000. This means the money should go back to whoever it was stolen from.
The conviction and sentence were handed down by the Accra Circuit Court. The specific date of the theft was not immediately clear.
This case highlights the consequences of stealing large sums of money in Ghana.
