The guy is only a suspect, till proven guilty by the court of law. We as a nation should respect each other specially our website clergy. The police could have waited for the clergy to finish the ceremony before arresting him. He wasn't going any where. This are the things that cause judgment debt. Ghana Police no manners only bribe taken.

Agree, but the completion of the wedding ceremony was important to giving meaning fairness. The accusation that followed his arrest is not true until proven guilty in a competent court of the land. We see accused armed tried and set free of the crime they've been accused of. If this man goes thru court trial and set free, what do you think the arrest has caused to his marriage and future family setting?

In other countries, police is not permitted to arrest a suspect in church. IDK about Ghana but I seriously condemn this action. The Church should have stopped the police, interrogated them and find out if the arrest is genuine or some jilted woman out there plotted this. What if the groom is innocent of this crime. I will be interested to know the outcome of this case. But our police is a ridicule in this country, they are swift to arrest citizens when foreigners dole out some coins to them. When will the police arrest these same Chinese and other nationalities for polluting our rivers and depriving many of clean water. Shame on Gh Police.

Most women are never ready to help a guy make it so they can live on it. Since Ghana has become a jungle where crime is committed without anyone being apprehended, most of these women feel comfortable associating themselves with thieves/criminals.

Because of money, most women have reduced themselves to cheap assets.

Perhaps, it would have made more sense to agree on co-habitation until the groom saved enough money for this wedding. The interest he is going to pay on this "loan" will be quite high.

A father and his son were attending a wedding when the son suddenly asked a question.

Son: Dad, why is the bride wearing white?

Dad: Because this is the happiest day of her life and she wants people to know it

Son: So, why does the groom wear black?

A lot of us will laugh at this joke not realizing that there’s some truth behind it. A wedding is full of symbolism and that includes the color the bride and groom wear.

The color black has always been associated with death, that’s why we wear a black pin or black clothes when attending a funeral. So why does the groom wear black during a supposedly joyous event? Because he represents death, death of himself for his wife

THIS TIME THE GROOM WEAR BLACK.

From konkonuase with critical analysis. The man you have to be a thief for you to be push into such a crime for the sake of wedding a Ghanaian woman, that is if proven guilty but if not this is just a sann. For the woman, are you crying because of the primi(premature preg)? Did you do a thorough background check on your man before the golden day? Did you really put pressure on him to hurry up? Do you have a back-up plan? At our morale court room the truth is what we look for and the offenders are the only one who knows the truth. Gossiping is our business.

Yes,the Criminal(groom) should be arrested.But,should the arrest be Before,In the process of his Marriage, or After the Marriage Ceremonies?.In Civil Society the Groom even if he was
already in Jail, has the Right to apply to be Excused for 1/2 Days to Marry.
Considering the facts that,two persons
who have agreed to be joined together in Marriage are two Separate personalities, and Not the Same person who is wanted. Therefore, considering the health and welfare of the Bride if She's not the Same person as the Groom, cannot be ignored for the Police to Arrest the Groom in the Church in the process of a Wedding.I don't think the Police has the right to obstruct the Marriage Ceremony.A life threatening consequence could happen to the Bride(cardiac-arrest, sudden death, permanent psychiatric sickness,etc). Therefore,I think the Gh Police did not exercise Caution and Simple Common Sense Approach in discharge of their duties,in the circumstance.The Police had several options to execute their duties in this Case.For instance,after the wedding in the evening at home,or the following day at 6:00AM,wherever they may be.Therefore,24/7 Surveillance was the operation "Key" applicable which was diabolically ignored by the Gh Police.The Gh Police was rude to the innocent Bride. If the Groom had Committed Murder,I wonder the reaction of the Police. Maybe the officiating Priest could also be arrested. A typical diabolical and Rude African attitude in my personal opinion.Anyway.

I don't know why many people are sympathizing with this robber. I am a small scale miner at Aniamote where he came to rob. His nickname is Network. All his family are living there. Some of his brothers are also in the robbing business. About two months ago his gang staged a serious robbing at one of the mining sites bolting away with more than 800 grams of gold. One was arrested and has since been jailed. This in police wanted people list. He went into hiding and resurfaced on Tuesday only to rob this Chinese with a cutlass inflicting serious wounds on him. He later called his family and told them the said wedding had been canceled. So none of his people attended the wedding. He knew he would be arrested there, so he lied to the people. But the police were more intelligent than him and spied around the place to ascertain whether the wedding was indeed canceled. Here he was enjoying the money. He is a known criminal in the area and Kwesimintsim. He will never see the light again. I am shocked at how people won't clap for the police but such a job done but rather sympathies with this criminal. Wait till he pounds on you one day with a cutlass and AK47. The whole village is jubilating.

I don't think anyone on this forum Sympathize with the Suspect.The man could be a Criminal from hell;that is not the point.The point is, the Collapse of the Bride Could not happened (and who knows next) if the arrest in the Church was well thought through and avoided.Therefore,the Policemen did not exercise Caution and Common Sense approach with regards to the rights of the Couple to marry and erred to obstruct the Marriage Ceremony in Church.That is what some of us talked about.And that do not translate into Sympathy for the suspect in anyway as you think. According to the report the Bride Collapsed.What do you say if she dies,or goes Mad!.Can someone also ask,how you would feel,if She's your Sister!.

I don't have any sympathy for any of them. It's even good the marriage was stopped before they became a couple that could accord the alleged armed robber some privileges if they were married.

What about if it turns out that it's not true .The police should have waited after the ceremony invite the man .It's very unfortunate but if true the man is really stupid thinking that he can get away easily like that

I hate this hypocrisy. Is it because this guy supposedly robbed a Chinese guy and we think it is right?

I too think we have cedes our sovereignty to these Chinese because our corrupt leaders have sold our birthright to these people but that is not a good enough excuse to defend an alleged armed robber. Do we know how many Ghanaians this guy might have robbed or even killed?

Let the security people do their job. At least he is luckier than most armed robbers in Ghana who did not get a chance to prove their innocence and we gave them instant justice by lynching them.

A Ghanaian would do everything to humiliate his fellow Ghanaian at the interest of a foreigner. I don't think a Chinese would have done that to his fellow Chinese because of a Ghanaian. Yes he is alleged to have stolen but the Church premise is a holy place so he should have been allowed to finish the ceremony. I am wondering how much Chinese have been arrested for polluting our water bodies with poisonous chemicals. Let's be wise.

IF HE HAD BEEN ENJOYING A BEER AT A BAR, WOULD YOU ALLOW HIM TO FINISH HIS DRINK BEFORE EFFECTING THE ARREST?

FINALLY ARE YOU BY CHANCE AN ARMED ROBBER? WHY BE AN ADVOCATE FOR HIM?

GBOMOH, It's a pity atimes when I discovered that I an part of this country called Ghana. The country is sweet and blessed, but majority of my people on this platform are senseless and fools. Our deep hatred for Nigeria and Nigerians has blocked our real sense of reasoning at all time. How do you know that the guy or the fool you replied is a Nigerian? Or you just believe they are they only one that see our women as cheap and wicked? Ask your mother, if only she will open up to you...... Some of our women are very cheap and wicked. It's a fact that we don't like to discuss in public. Are you married ? I hope you won't think I am a Nigerian too because of my truth? You can think anything you like, but the fact is that we need to be honest and face our problem head on at times.

Lesson to all young ladies who want to marry. Checks or investigate the guys back ground before marriage. A word to a wise is enough.

My sister, you should try to console yourself and thank God that this robber did not find way into your life since he would finally have killed you for blood money

No no it was unprofessional and unconstitutional to arrest a suspect who is standing before the pulpit. Why didn't the Police wait till the end of the program.

Groom arrested at altar pleads guilty to robbery act

The bridegroom who was arrested on his wedding day for allegedly robbing a Chinese national to the tune of GH?18,000 has admitted to committing the crime.

The accused, Aaron Acquah was arrested last Saturday at the Aldersgate Methodist Church at Anaji in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis of the Western Region when he was about to exchange vows with his bride.

He was subsequently arraigned before a Prestea Magistrate court presided over by Mr Frank Addo Ashietey on Monday.

According to The Chronicle report, the accused who appeared in court wearing a white shirt over a pair of black trouser pleaded guilty with explanation to the charge of robbery.
