Elrad Amoako, the 16-year-old son of Bishop Salifu Amoako, has been sentenced to six months at the Senior Correctional Centre following his involvement in a devastating car accident in East Legon that claimed the lives of two teenage girls.
The sentencing comes after Elrad pleaded guilty to eight charges, including two counts of manslaughter.
The tragic incident occurred on October 12, 2024, when Elrad, driving his mother’s white Jaguar F-Space Sports at high speed without a valid license, collided with an Acura utility vehicle.
The impact caused the Acura to catch fire, resulting in the deaths of Maame Dwomoh and Justine Agbenu, both teenagers.
The court found Elrad’s actions reckless and in clear violation of road safety laws.
