Evangelist Patricia Asiedua Asiamah, also known as Nana Agradaa, is scheduled for release on March 3, 2026. Her lawyer, Richard Asare Baffour, explained the reason for her anticipated early exit from prison.
The release aligns with Ghana's remission policy for prisoners. This policy allows certain inmates to complete their sentences sooner.
According to the lawyer, the policy permits qualifying prisoners to serve only two-thirds of their imposed jail time. This leads to deductions from the total sentence.
The remission policy has been in place as part of Ghana's correctional system. It is applied to ensure fair sentencing practices.
Lawyer Asare Baffour emphasized that Nana Agradaa's situation is handled according to these established rules. It is not a case of special favor.
The remission benefit is calculated based on the original sentence handed down by the court.
This process is standard for many inmates who meet the criteria for reduced sentences.
The announcement clarifies the circumstances surrounding her impending departure from prison.
