The prosecution said on reaching the house, Patricia overtook the complainant at the entrance and confronted her that she overheard her and the said shop owner gossiping about her.

Prosecution said the complainant fell in the process and some neighbours separated the fight.
Prosecution said the complainant’s medicated spectacle valued GHC1,300.00 and mobile phone valued GHC750.00 got damaged.
Mr Adjei said a report was made to the Police and the complainant was issued with a medical report form to seek medical attention.
