Court adjourns Adisadel College assault case to October 04

The third hearing of the case of alleged assault at the Adisadel College has been adjourned to Wednesday, October 04, 2023, due to the absence of the presiding judge, Eric Oheneba Antwi Boasiako.  

.

Mr Boasiako, the substantive judge of the Cape Coast District Court II where the matter is being heard, is currently on leave and it is not clear when he would resume.  

The case has, therefore, been temporarily moved to District Court I where the parties involved would perpetually seek adjournments until the judge resumes.  

There was virtually no activity in court on Wednesday as the judges were attending a conference and are expected to resume sitting on Monday, October 2.  

The 17-year-old student at the centre of the incident denied the charges of assault and causing harm levelled against him by the state when he made his second appearance in court on Wednesday, August 02.  

The case was then adjourned to Wednesday, September 27, 2023, to give him the opportunity to finish with his exams.
