Evangelist Patricia Asiedua Asiamah, also known as Nana Agradaa, is expected to be released from prison on March 3, 2026. Her lawyer, Richard Asare Baffour, explained the reason for her anticipated release.
Mr. Baffour clarified that Agradaa's release is in line with Ghana's remission policy. This policy is a standard practice for prisoners who meet certain criteria.
The remission policy permits prisoners to serve only two-thirds of their original sentence. This allows for a reduction in their time served.
The lawyer emphasized that Agradaa's release is not a result of any special favoritism. It follows the established legal framework for sentence reductions.
Details regarding the length of her sentence or the specific crime for which she was convicted were not elaborated upon in the lawyer's statement.
The remission policy aims to encourage good behavior among inmates. It is a common practice within the correctional system.
