A Circuit Court in Accra has sentenced a 22-year-old Barber to 10years imprisonment for having sex with a 14-year-old girl, at Abeka in Accra.
Yaw Sontah, charged with defilement, pleaded not guilty but the Court after the trial, found him guilty and sentenced him accordingly.
Before being sentenced, Sontah pleaded with the Court to have mercy on him because he was married and had a child.
The Court presided over by Mrs Christiana Cann, noted that the Prosecution, led by Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Agnes Boafo, had succeeded in proving the offence of defilement.
