A man named Kwaku Mensah is facing a murder charge. He is 28 years old.

The alleged crime happened last week in Nkawkaw. The victim was a chop bar operator.

A Magistrate Court in Koforidua has heard the case. The court has ordered Mensah to stay in police custody.

This follows a charge of murder brought against him by prosecutors.

The Ghana Police Service is continuing its investigation into the incident.

The Koforidua Magistrate Court will hear more about the case at a later date.
