The suspects being escorted from the courthouse
Lawyer Owiredu Donkor, a counsel for one of the accused persons involved in the Kwabenya jailbreak has expressed his disquiet over the several adjournments of the case.

Speaking in an interview with Kasapa FM’s Daakyehene Ofosu Agyemang, Lawyer Donkor said her client’s younger child is suffering since Nancy’s remand.
An Accra Circuit court has adjourned the case to 9th April, 2018 because the presiding judge, Aboagye Tando was attending a meeting.
