An Accra Circuit Court, adjudicating the case involving the General Overseer of Alive Chapel International, Bishop Elijah Salifu Amoako, and his wife, Mouha, who are accused of allowing their unlicensed minor son to drive, has been adjourned to February 17 2025.
The Accra Circuit Court, presided over by Mr. Samuel Bright Acquah, listening to both the defense counsel and state attorney after approaching the bench, decided to adjourn the case to February 17, 2025.
Bishop Amoako, the General Overseer of Alive Chapel International, his wife Mouha, and Linda Bonsu Bempah, a sales assistant, were arrested after an accident involving their 16-year-old son, who allegedly caused a crash in East Legon on October 12, 2024, which resulted in the deaths of two young girls.
Bishop Amoako, his wife Mouha, and Linda have been charged with allowing an unlicensed driver to operate a vehicle.
The charges stem from an incident where their son drove a white Jaguar F-Space Sports without a valid license, colliding with an Acura Utility vehicle that caught fire, tragically leading to two fatalities.
All three have pleaded not guilty and are currently on bail of GHC50,000 each, with two sureties each.
The couple’s son was sentenced to six months in prison by an Accra Juvenile and Family Court after pleading guilty to eight counts of manslaughter, negligently causing harm, dangerous driving, and driving without a license.
He is serving his sentence at the Senior Correctional Home.
