He has since been granted a ¢200,000 bail.When the case was called Wednesday, the prosecution filed fresh charges including terrorism and genocide, but appealed for time to enable a thorough investigation to be done on the matter.Joy News’ Anny Osabutey was present at the court on Wednesday and reported the prosecution says it has yet to conclude investigations and therefore needed more time.The case has consequently been adjourned to July 6.
