The 19-year-old who pleaded guilty said he had an issue with its owner and therefore decided to “teach him a lesson”.
His Lordship Charles Kwesi Acheampong has convicted him of his own plea and handed him a 6-year sentence with hard labour.
The court has asked the accused to pay a compensation of GH15,000 to the owner of the tricycle, and compensation of GH3600 also to the Ghana Police Service, Kukuom.
