The Bibiani Magistrate’s Court has fined three unemployed youth a total of GH¢ 300 for stealing 13 bags of fertilizers. The convicts, Kwame Oppong, 22, Kwabena Fosu, 25, and Kwasi Braimah, 18, who were each fined GH¢100, were sentenced on their own plea of guilty. They will each serve six months imprisonment in hard labour in default. Police Chief Inspector Samuel Tawiah, told the Court, presided over by Mr. Dickson Dakatsey that the complainant, Mr. Andrews Agyemang is an Agricultural Extension Officer at Sefwi Asawinso Number One and that on May 31 this year, he took 500 bags of fertilizers from Sefwi Wiawso to Asawinso Number One to be sold to farmers. He said the three convicts were then engaged to off-load the fertilizers from a bus but they stole 13 bags of the fertilizers in the absence of the complainant. The Court heard that when the complainant came back and detected the theft, he conducted his own investigations which led to the arrest of the convicts by the police, and after investigations were charged with the offence.
