Asabke Alangdi, the second accused person convicted for the murder of Adams Mahama has appealed against the death sentence handed him. 

In a notice of appeal filed by his lawyers, Mr Asabke wants the sentence set aside. 

According to the appeal, he is dissatisfied with the ruling. 

A 7-member jury on Thursday returned a 4-3 Not Guilty verdict for the charges of murder and conspiracy to commit murder against Gregory Afoko, the first accused.

The jurors could not reach a unanimous 7-0 verdict to prove Mr. Afoko was guilty, leaving the state with an option to prosecute him all over again.

The jurors, however, convicted his co-accused Asake Alangdi on the charge of conspiracy to commit murder and he is to face death by hanging.

Due to this, his lawyers have questioned the verdict and have subsequently appealed same. 

They also state that the conviction of Asabke Alangdi is erroneous and same is not supported by the evidence adduced at the trial.
