The Asankragwa District Court has sentenced Daniel Baidoo to a fine of 300 penalty units, equivalent to GH¢3,600, for attacking journalists at Adumanya near Asankra Breman in the Western Region.

In default, he would serve a year's imprisonment in hard labour.

A press release by the police said Baidoo was arrested on February 21, 2025, by the Western Central Regional Police Command for the attack.

The police retrieved from him a Panasonic Lumix camera and an iPhone belonging to the victims.

“Daniel Baidoo’s face has been shown in the attached photograph because he has been duly convicted by the court,” it added.
