The New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Twifo Atti-Morkwa, Central Region, has committed to supporting its parliamentary candidate, Ebenezer Dwamena, who has been remanded in police custody.

Mr. Dwamena, along with two other individuals, was remanded on Wednesday, July 31, for allegedly failing to deliver a vehicle after receiving payment from a businessman in Twifo Praso.

The trio faces charges of conspiracy to defraud by false pretenses and false pretenses.

In an interview with Citi News, Charles Amoah, the NPP communications officer for Twifo Atti-Morkwa, affirmed that the party will fully support Dwamena’s legal team.

“Since the case is now in court, we are leaving it to the legal people to intervene in whatever processes will be done. Her Lordship gave us two weeks and so we are now waiting and whatever can be done will be done early,” Amoah stated.

According to Amoah, Dwamena had introduced some friends to a car dealer after successfully purchasing a vehicle from them. However, after the money was transferred, the car dealer failed to deliver the vehicle, leading the buyers to take the matter to court, which resulted in Dwamena’s remand.

The presiding judge, Her Ladyship Sophia Priscila Yeboa, remanded the suspect into police custody and has forwarded the case to the Attorney General’s Office for advice.
