In a shocking turn of events, a robbery suspect accused of robbing a couple at gunpoint could not control his bladder during his trial at the Ho Circuit Court.
Yao Wlako, 30, urinated so profusely that his urine filled the dock, ran into the courtroom, and forced people to leave the courtroom and adjoining corridor to avoid the smell.
Wlako, along with his accomplice Emmanuel Boni, 24, allegedly broke into the couple’s home at Ho Area 51 in the Volta Region and robbed them of their belongings, including a laptop, iPhone, Samsung tablet, Techno phone, and jewellery valued at over GH¢10,000. The robbers also burnt the couple’s bodies with a hot-pressing iron.
Both suspects were charged with conspiracy to commit robbery, robbery, causing unlawful damage, unlawful entry, and causing harm, but they pleaded not guilty to all five counts.
The police prosecutor for the case, Chief Inspector Agnes Ahiable, stated that the robbers were arrested after one of them left his phone behind, which the couple gave to the police when they reported the incident.
This incident is a stark reminder of the alarming rate of violent crimes in the country. It also highlights the need for stricter laws and tighter security measures to deter such heinous crimes.
The incident has caused a stir on social media, with many Ghanaians expressing their outrage and calling for justice to be served.
It is now up to the court to determine the fate of the suspects. The incident has caused a disruption in the proceedings, but justice must prevail.
The court should ensure that the trial continues with fairness and impartiality to bring closure to the victims and their families.
