Narrating the facts of the case to the court, Prosecuting Police Chief Inspector Paul Adamah said on April 24, Mr. Odo and two friends whose names were not mentioned attended funeral at Senya Beraku. He said at about 1930 hours they drove to a drinking spot where they met the accused and some people sitting in front of the bar.

The complainant and his friend later left the place and reported the matter to the police and the accused was arrested.

Mr. Odo was treated and discharged at the Senya Beraku Health Centre.
