The suspect in the murder of investigative journalist Ahmed Suale, Daniel Owusu Koranteng, has had his charges amended to include abetment to murder.

This change was announced during a court hearing on Wednesday, April 2. Koranteng, who has been held in custody since his arrest, is accused of sharing photos of Ahmed Suale before his death and allegedly being present at the scene of the murder in January 2019.

Initially, he was charged only with murder when he first appeared in court on March 19, but now, the charges have been revised to include abetment to murder.

As the case progresses, the court has ordered that Koranteng remain in custody, with the next hearing scheduled for April 17.
