The Accra Juvenile and Family Court has remanded Elrad Amoako, the juvenile son of Bishop Elisha Salifu Amoako, founder of Alive Chapel International, following his involvement in a recent tragic accident in East Legon.
A statement issued on Friday, November 1, 2024, stated, “The suspect, Elrad Salifu Amoako, was put before the Court on November 1, 2024, on eight counts, including the offence of manslaughter. He was subsequently remanded by the Court to a Correction Centre to reappear on 7th November 2024.”
It further indicated that the court had also seized his travel documents to prevent any risk of flight.
The accident, which occurred on October 12, 2024, claimed the lives of two pre-teens, prompting widespread public calls for justice.
The court has mandated a medical assessment for Elrad to be conducted on Monday at the University of Ghana Hospital to review his physical and mental health.
He is expected to appear in court on November 7, 2024, when further details regarding his involvement and potential legal proceedings will be discussed.
