A man named Kofi Owusu has been remanded by the Kumasi Circuit Court. He is 42 years old.
Owusu is accused of unlawfully possessing a pistol. The weapon was made locally.
He also allegedly had 10 live rounds of ammunition. Owusu did not have permission to own these items.
The court ordered that Owusu remain in custody. This decision was made on July 5, 2026.
A court filing indicates Owusu is charged with unlawful possession of firearms. This is a serious offense.
He is expected to appear in court again soon. His next court date is June 19, 2026.
Possessing unlicensed firearms is against the law in Ghana. This protects public safety.
The Ghana Police Service works to remove illegal weapons from communities. This helps reduce crime.
