Tamale, July 31, (Esther), GNA - A Tamale District Court on
Tuesday remanded Issah Mohammed, a 25-year-old unemployed
until August 11, for stealing clothing valued at GHc 829 belonging to
Madam Gladys Gamoor, a lecturer at the University for
Development Studies. Mohammed pleaded not guilty. The prosecution had told the court that the accused had once
been granted bail for a similar offence for which he served a
three-month jail but while on bail he stole again. The court was told that the accused went with an accomplice
Huudu Iddrisu who was also remanded until August 11, to see a
friend who had returned to Tamale from Accra. On reaching the house of Madam Gamoor, the accused asked
Iddrisu to wait for him outside. The accused then jumped over the
wall into the house, collected the clothing and threw them over the
wall to Iddrisu. The prosecution said the accused took to his knees when some
neighbours of the complaint saw him.
