The Bolgatanga Circuit Court, on Monday, October 2nd, 2023, remanded six girls into police custody for allegedly assaulting and abusing their young colleague, contrary to the law.
The five were arrested by the Bolgatanga police after a young girl was seen being beaten by approximately six young ladies in a viral video that was reported to have taken place on Saturday, September 30th, 2023.
According to the state prosecutor, the complainant stated that she was called by one of the accused, who invited her to meet near the Bolgatanga mobile astroturf park. Upon her arrival, she was subjected to a beating, with the accusation of snatching one of the ladies’ boyfriends.
