The taxi driver was in court on Monday 13th September 2021 and confessed to burying a pregnant woman alive for ritual purposes to aide the former MP to win one of the elections.

Making his first appearance in court, his lawyer Theophilus Donkor pleaded with the court to grant him bail. However, Chief Inspector Godfred Bampoe, the prosecutor who stood in for ASP Sylvester Asare argued that since the matter was still being investigated, keeping him in remand will help the investigation.
