(rtd) Nkrabeah Effah Darte as the lead counsel.Capt. (rtd) Effah Dartey narrated to Hitz Entertainment News that the case was called but adjourned because the prosecutor, DSP Mary Agbozo had problems with the charge sheet.“I asked the court in that instance to admit him to bail and the court graciously agreed and admitted him to bail,” he concluded.
