The Nsuta Circuit Court in the Sekyere Central District of the Ashanti Region has sentenced a driver, Douglas Nyarnor, to 5 years' imprisonment for stealing GH¢195 belonging to an auto-rickshaw operator.
According to Adom Online, Nyarnor, described as an ex-convict and a resident of Jeduako near Nsuta, was sentenced on 29 October 2026 by the presiding judge, Simon Nketiah Gagah.
The prosecution told the court that the complainant, who operates a pragya at Nsuta, parked his vehicle in front of a provision shop near the Jeduako-Birem taxi terminal at about 8pm on 27 October 2026.
