A Tarkwa Circuit court presided over by John Ajet Nassam has jailed a 21 year old farmer, Tekpey Abebrese, 30 years in hard labour for human trafficking.
The audience in the courtroom were stunned when Abebrese, resident of Brepro Nkwanta near Bawdie in the Wassa Amenfi East District of the Western Region admitted to attempting to sell one Joseph Narh, a carpenter of the same village for ritual purpose.
Presenting the facts of the case, Police Inspector Patrick Adzadza said the complainant in the case was contacted by the accused to assist him secure a kiosk at Bawdie to which he (the complainant) agreed.
But, Inspector Adzadza said on June 19, 2007, the complainant received a call from Tekpey who informed him (the complainant) that he lied when he said he wanted him to assist him secure a kiosk, rather he wanted him (the complainant) to assist him sell one Narh in the Sewfi area where a human head could be exchanged for a KIA vehicle.
The complainant feigned interest but reported the deal to the Police and on June 25, 2007 when Tekpey arrived at Bawdie with Narh, Police at the Bawdie Barrier were alerted and Tekpey was arrested and sent to the Police Station at Prestea.Source: GNA
