The Accra High Court is set to deliver its judgment on December 4, 2024, in the high-profile trial involving the murder of J.B. Danquah Adu, a former Member of Parliament.
Daniel Asiedu, also known as “Sexy Don Don,” faces charges of murder and robbery in the 2016 incident. Justice Lydia Osei Marfo presides over the case, which has spanned years of deliberations.
The prosecution accuses Asiedu of fatally stabbing the MP during a robbery attempt, supported by alleged DNA evidence linking him to the crime scene. However, Asiedu denies the charges, maintaining his innocence throughout the trial. His co-accused, Vincent Bossu, was earlier acquitted of conspiracy charges due to lack of evidence.
During the final hearings, both the defense and prosecution presented their closing arguments. Justice Marfo promised a thorough review of all evidence before delivering the court’s decision. The case has drawn national attention due to its implications for justice and security in Ghana.
