The Kaneshie Magistrate Court has remanded British citizen, Arthur Simpson-Kent in the custody of the Bureau of National Investigation (BNI).
The murder suspect was arrested in the Western Region after he fled the United Kingdom to Ghana. He is linked with the murder of his girlfriend, Sian Blake and her two sons.
They were found buried at the backyard of the home they shared with the suspects as partners at Erith in South East London.
Joy News' Joseph Opoku Gapko was in court and reports that lawyer for Arthur Simpson-Kent is against the court’s decision to remand him.
Justice Srem Sai argued that security agencies have breached his client’s human rights and the extradition Act 1960 by denying him the right to counsel and not securing an arrest warrant from a local court.
He demanded that his client be discharged but the court declined the request.
He is to reappear on January 26, 2016.
