Cape Coast, April 25, GNA – A Cape Coast Magistrate Court on Wednesday remanded 75-year old Kofi Foofie and his accomplice Kwabena Kotonie into prison custody for allegedly killing Matthew Kofi Osei with a double barrelled gun at Assin Fosu .
Their pleas were not taken and they would reappear on Wednesday May 16.
Chief Inspector Sarfo Khanin told the court presided over by Mr Kwame Ohemeng-Mensah, that on March 21, the Police at Assin Fosu had information that one Osei had been shot dead at “New Habitat”, a suburb of Assin Fosu.

The case has been adjourned to May 16 to enable the police to send the docket to the Attorney Generals department for advice.
