Coup plot: Agordzo to fight for bail in court today

ACP Dr Benjamin Agordzo, who is facing a charge of treason, will re-appear in court today, Monday, November 18, 2019, in a bid to secure bail.

ACP Agordzo was remanded into police custody by the Kaneshie Magistrate court and has been kept at the ministries police station since.

This was after his charge of Abetment to Commit Crime; namely, Treason Felony contrary to section 20(1) and 182 (b) of the Criminal and Other Offences Act 1960 (Act 29) were read to him.



The court also ordered Dr Agordzo to desist from granting media interviews henceforth.

After the court hearing Tuesday, the suspect told the media he is innocent of the charges against him.

“I have not committed any crime. I’ve done nothing wrong. The President called upon us to be citizens. So when I express my opinion on a WhatsApp platform, unrelated to any alleged coup, nobody should bog me down.

“And I will stand for this. I will stand for this to the end. They cannot break me down at all. And I’m as strong as anything. Thank you very much for your support”.
