A 32-year-old man appeared before the Kumasi Circuit Court. He pleaded guilty to the charge of defiling an 8-year-old girl.
Following his plea, the court decided to keep the man in custody. This decision was made on June 25, 2026.
The court has deferred sentencing. This means the judge will wait to decide the punishment.
The delay is until a social welfare report is completed. This report will help the court understand the situation better.
The details of the defilement were presented to the court. The victim was an 8-year-old girl.
The court is taking steps to ensure all aspects of the case are considered. The social welfare report is a key part of this process.
The man will remain on remand until his sentencing date is set.
