The prosecution team is to amend its earlier charge sheet to include the new suspect, who was arrested by the Military Police on 5 May 2019. According to the prosecution team, the court should not consider bail for them, since, they argued, locating them will be difficult. However, one of the judges, Justice Afia Asare Botwe, said the prosecution failed to provide an explicit explanation as to why the accused persons should continue to be remanded. Later, the prosecution prayed the court to use its own discretion to determine the fate of the nine accused persons.
