A Watchman Charles Ayisala according to a report sighted on Crime Watch TV was arrested and imprisoned for stoning a man in self-defence.
Crime Check reports that Charles
Ayisala who is a forty six years old man found an intruder who sneaked into one
of the rooms Ayisala was keeping watch over and shit on the floor. When Ayisala
approached the man to find out why he had to do that, a fight ensued.
Charles Ayisala narrating his
ordeal said the heavily built intruder held his throat and nearly strangled him
to death. Fearing for his life, he struck a shot with the catapult which
unfortunately hit the intruder’s eye.
Crime Check reports that Ayisala
could not hire the services of a Lawyer but in court, he was fined six thousand
two hundred cedis to the state and three thousand cedis to the intruder or in
default serve 8yrs in prison.
His boss whom he has served
diligently over the years did not pay for him either.
Meanwhile, after serving four
years in jail, good samaritan Ali Ibrahim gave us money to pay Ayisala’s fine.
He could not but weep when I broke the news to him.
