Four people have been remanded in police custody by an Accra Circuit Court. The court made this decision after hearing charges against them.
The suspects are accused of defrauding a businessman. The alleged fraud involved a land deal where a large sum of money changed hands.
Prosecutors stated that the suspects sold a plot of land to the businessman. This land, however, did not belong to them, according to court filings.
The amount of money involved in the alleged fraud is GHC 500,000. This was confirmed by court documents.
The specific details of how the transaction took place are under investigation by the police.
The court ordered the remand of the four individuals. They will remain in police custody as investigations continue.
This action follows a complaint filed by the defrauded businessman.
The case has been adjourned for further hearing.
