In a shocking turn of events, the Attorney-General has withdrawn all charges against Bishop Salifu Amoako, his wife Mouha Amoako, and sales assistant Linda Bonsu Bempah in connection with the East Legon accident case.
The trio, who were previously charged over their son’s involvement in a fatal crash, walked free on Monday, February 17, 2025, after the state informed the court of its decision to drop the charges.
The move, according to state prosecutors, aims to allow the police to conduct further investigations before determining the next legal course of action.
However, the legal drama took another unexpected turn as unconfirmed reports emerged that Bishop Amoako and his co-accused were re-arrested moments after leaving the courtroom.
Sources suggest that fresh legal grounds have been cited for their reapprehension, though official details remain undisclosed.
This development has sparked speculation over whether the Attorney-General’s move was merely procedural or if new evidence has surfaced in the high-profile case.
The case stems from the tragic October 12, 2024, accident in which the couple’s 16-year-old son, driving without a license, crashed a Jaguar F-Pace Sport into an Acura utility vehicle, causing a fire that claimed the lives of two young girls.
The teenager has already been sentenced to six months at the Senior Correctional Center after pleading guilty to manslaughter, while his parents were fined and ordered to cover damages.
Now, with charges against the parents dropped but their immediate re-arrest rumored, the question remains: Is this the end of their legal troubles, or just the beginning of a new battle?
