George Adjei had collected a total of GH¢ 74,000.00 from the victims with a promise to get them employed by the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) and Social Security and the National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) but failed to keep his word.
He was arraigned, pleaded not guilty to the crime and granted GH¢ 80,000.00 bail but jumped bail.
His two other accomplices, George Boafo and Daniel Aluu, are also on the run. The court, presided over by Mrs. Mary Nsenkyire, has adjourned the case to September 1 2016.
The crime according to police Inspector Benjamin Owusu Agyemang, happened between the year 2012 and 2014.
He said Adjei and the two other fugitive accomplices had convinced the victims – Ernest Kwaku Adjei, Stephen Twumasi Ankrah, James Addai and Prince Adu Ankrah, that they were connected and could get them employed at a fee.
After collecting the money, they went into hiding and a formal report was made to the police. Adjei was later spotted in Ejisu and arrested, put before court and admitted to bail but failed to re-appear to answer for his crime.
