Three convicts will serve 19 years in prison for robbing one Elijah Torgbedzi of his iPhone 6s mobile phone valued at GHC700 around the Ho central market.
Mercy Sokpe, 22, Atsu Kamasa, 25, and Gidfred Dzidonu, 19, on May 4, orchestrated the robbery. Mercy approached the victim under the guise of taking a selfie and signaled her counterparts to attack Elijah with scissors and bolted with his phone.
Mercy and Atsu were arrested from their hideout in Ho.
On May 9, the three convicts were put before the Ho Circuit Court presided over by his Honor Osman Abdul-Hakeem on two counts of conspiracy to commit robbery and robbery, and they pleaded guilty to the charges.
They were convicted and sentenced to three years each on the charge of conspiracy to commit robbery.
The court also sentenced Atsu and Godfred to five years each for robbery.
Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service has entreated the public to stay vigilant whenever they are approached by strangers for help.
