A taxi driver identified as Kofi Appiah has been remanded by the Koforidua Magistrate Court. This follows an alleged hit-and-run incident.
The court heard that Appiah struck a pedestrian while driving his taxi. He is accused of failing to stop after the collision.
The pedestrian sustained serious injuries from the impact. Medical professionals are currently attending to the victim.
Prosecutors told the court about the serious nature of the charges. They requested that Appiah be held in custody.
The defence team argued for bail, but the court denied their request. Appiah will remain in custody while the investigation continues.
This incident highlights the dangers on our roads and the importance of drivers taking responsibility for their actions.
The court case will continue at a later date. Further details are expected as the investigation proceeds.
