The Adisadel student who was seen in a viral video violently assaulting another student in a dormitory has denied the charges of assault and causing harm leveled against him.
Appearing in court on Wednesday, August 2, 2023, His Lordship Eric Oheneba Antwi-Boasiako refused the plea of the culprit’s lawyer when he appealed to stop the court from taking the plea of the culprit.
The student’s denial of the charges resulted in the Cape Coast District Magistrate Court to adjourn the case to September 27, 2023 for the culprit to concentrate and partake in the upcoming 2023 WASSCE.
The court which was not opened to the public as a result of the individuals involved had a three member panel deliberate on the case.
The unfortunate incident is believed to be as a result of two students fighting over a SIM card which led to one student strangling the other and hitting another student’s face on a metal bed frame.
Authorities of the school initially suspended the victim but recalled him to be taken care of on campus.
