Nana Frimpong Akles, charged with defilement, had his plea reserved by the court.
The court presided over by Mrs Rita Abrokwah-Doko has remanded Akles into lawful custody pending further investigations into the case and he is to reappear on October 28.
Prosecuting Chief Inspector Kofi Atimbire prayed the court to remand him into lawful custody pending further investigations into the matter.
The facts narrated by the prosecution is that the complainant in the matter is the victim’s brother. The complainant and victim reside at new Legon and Akles also reside in the same vicinity.

Prosecution said the accused person left the victim in the said uncompleted building.
However, the victim managed to get to the house and she narrated her ordeal to the complainant.
The prosecution said the victim was sent to the Police station when the complainant detected that she was bleeding.
