After appearing before the Juvenile Court in Accra today, November 1, 2024, the son of Prophet Salifu Amoako, who was involved in the East Legon disaster that killed two little girls, was placed under remand.

The court has taken both his Ghanaian and American passports, and he is expected to make another appearance on November 7, 2024. He will take him to the University of Ghana Hospital on Monday for a medical evaluation, the police say.

Additionally, on Monday, November 4, "his Ghanaian and US passports are to be deposited at the court." After being admitted to the University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC) since the day of the accident, Elrad was just released. A doctor's letter after his release stated that although he was fit to go home, he was not fit to be questioned by the police.

The medical officer attending to the preacher’s son at the University of Ghana Hospital stated, “he is not fit to be interrogated by the police, even though he has been discharged from the hospital.”



The car crash, which took place on Saturday, 12th October 2024, left two girls dead and three others critically injured.



The charges relate to the actions of their son, Elrad, who, while driving a Jaguar SUV (GN 7801-20), collided with a 4×4 Acura vehicle (GR 2542-23) driven by Joseph Ackah.



CCTV footage from the crash revealed the moment Elrad, who was driving a Jaguar SUV, collided with another vehicle at a junction, leading to a fire that claimed the lives of the victims. The Ghana National Fire Service confirmed these details, with Assistant Division Officer (ADO) Alex King Nartey providing additional insight during an interview on Adom FM.
