Abraham William Abudu Hakim was remanded into police custody for stealing at the Asankrangwa-Takoradi lorry station in the Western Region. The District Magistrate Court in Enchi made the decision. The amount stolen from a trader was GH¢20,000.

Hakim resided in the same vicinity as the complainant, and they knew each other prior to the incident.

His Worship Lawrance Buanor-Bue deferred Hakim's sentence to May 14, 2026. Hakim later admitted the offence and handed GH¢13,200 to the police.
