A Tamale Circuit court presided over by his Lordship, Alexander Oware, pronounced the sentence after an in-camera hearing today, 9th August, 2022.
The convict was arrested on September 27, 2021, after some relatives of the victims reported a sodomy case to the Police in Salaga.
The accused pleaded guilty when he first appeared before the Tamale Circuit Court, but the Defense Lawyer asked for a psychiatric assessment which the Court granted.
A medical report on the convict conducted at the Pantang hospital was presented to the Court but it was rejected by the Judge.
A further examination conducted at the Tamale Teaching Hospital and presented to the Court got the Court to impose the seven-year sentence.
