The Akyem Swedru Circuit Court last Monday sentenced Kwasi Asare, a 42 year-old farmer to two years imprisonment in hard labour on charges of assault and causing unlawful damage.Police Chief Inspector Charles Quaye, prosecuting told the court presided over by Mr Edward Kwame Bosompem Apenkwah, that Asare who was in police custody on a case being tried in court deliberately defecated on himself thus causing unbearable stench at the charge office.He said when the inmates rebuked him for doing that; Asare got offended, picked the plastic waste container in the cells containing human excreta and poured it on them.Benjamin Gausen, a policeman on duty at the charge office was not spared either as Asare poured some of the human excreta on him when he advised the convict to stop misbehaving.Asare later hit the waste container against the wall and damaged it.The prosecutor said Asare was then brought out of the cells and handcuffed against the metal gate, but he used his saliva to create slime around his wrist in a bid to remove the handcuff from his hands.Source: GNA
