At long last! The battle is ended and Hon Eric Amoateng, the beloved Ex MP for Nkoranza North Constituency has replaced his "NOT GUILTY" plea with a "GUILTY" plea to charges of conspiracy to import heroine into America.Sentencing has been scheduled for 3pm on June 6, 2007. The Presiding Magistrate Judge Roanne L. Mann in accepting Amoateng's plea observed that "pursuant to Federal Rule LL of the criminal procedure, a finding has been made that the plea was made knowingly and voluntarily."Hon Amoateng and his counsel on March 19, 2007 signed document before the court in which the defendant told the court that after "fully discussing the matter with my counsel" he has decided to enter a plea of GUILTY.Exactly five months ago, Hon Amoateng in a statement issued through his Attorney Dennis Adjei Brenya of New Hampstead, New York said, "I affirm before my nation that the allegations against me are false. I have not done anything wrong, I emphatically and categorically deny the charges leveled against me, I pray to God that in due time and soon all the facts will come out and I would be totally exonerated."In the said statement, Hon Amoateng accused the media of "unfairly trying and convicting me without the benefit of the facts underlying the case. Our own constitution demand that I should be presumed innocent."Amoateng and one Nii Adjei were arrested on November 12, 2005 for concealing heroine in pottery and hiding it in a storage facility in Stan Island.Source: The Enquirer
