A man identified as a land guard has been remanded by an Accra Circuit Court. The 35-year-old suspect appeared before the judge on charges of assaulting another man. He is also accused of threatening the victim with death.
The incident reportedly stems from a disagreement over a piece of land. The prosecution stated that the land guard attacked the victim in connection with this dispute.
Court filings indicate the alleged assault and threats took place recently. The suspect was arrested by the police following the incident.
During the court hearing, the judge decided to remand the suspect. This means he will be held in custody while the case is investigated further.
The court has scheduled a future date for the next hearing. This will allow the legal process for the alleged assault and threats to continue.
The Ghana Police Service is continuing its investigation into the matter. Details about the land dispute will be presented in court.
