A Kumasi Circuit Court has remanded two people into prison custody for allegedly stealing three laptop computers valued at GH¢2,700.00.
Kwabena Owusu, an electrician and Akwasi Baah, trader, are facing charges of conspiracy and stealing.
They both pleaded innocent and were ordered to re-appear on Tuesday, July 17.
Police Chief Inspector Archibald Kwesi Fandoh, told the court presided over by Justice Emmanuel Amo-Yartey, that the accused persons on July 4, baited the complainant Eunice Korda with what they claimed was a gift of gold dust to bring the computers out of her office.
Under the pretext of performing some esoteric rituals on the gold, they fled with the computers.
The prosecution said two days after the crime, Owusu was spotted at Adum by the complainant and she caused his arrest.
At the police station, he mentioned Baah as his accomplice.
They confessed to the crime in their caution statements.**
