The charges against Daniel Owusu Koranteng, the suspect in the Ahmed Suale killing, have been amended by the prosecution.
The new sheet now includes abetment to commit a crime, to wit, murder.
This ensued when the case was called in court on Wednesday, April 2.
Already, the 35-year-old businessman, also known as Nana Amakye, has denied allegations that he sold photographs of the investigative journalist to former Member of Parliament Kennedy Agyapong before M Suale’s murder in 2019.
The prosecution maintains that Suale himself had identified Koranteng as the person responsible for supplying the images that were later broadcast on Net2 TV, where Kennedy Agyapong called for retribution against the journalist.
He had been initially charged with murder when he was arraigned on March 19, a charge that now includes abetment to murder.
He has since been remanded into custody. The case has been adjourned to April 17.
