Atinga Ayambire, a 29-year-old farmer, has been remanded in custody by the Accra Circuit Court, presided over by Judge Samuel Bright Acquah.
Ayambire faces multiple charges, including conspiracy, assault and unlawful harm, all related to alleged land guard activities.
Ayambire, who has pleaded not guilty to the charges, is accused of conspiring to commit a crime under the Criminal Offences Act and the Vigilantism and Related Offences Act.
His charges also include land guarding and several counts of assault and causing unlawful harm. He will remain in custody until his next court appearance on September 9, 2024.
Prosecutor Chief Inspector Daniel Danku detailed the case, which dates back to June 6, 2023. The prosecution alleges that Ayambire, along with his accomplices, Rasta, Tupac, Akuffo Addo, Nigga, and Area, who remain at large, confronted workers at a plot of land in Busuafise near Danchira.
The group reportedly demanded a “digging fee” and upon refusal from the complainants – Ayikwei Ofori, Nathaniel Ayikwei, George Darko and Samuel Kofi Siaw – assaulted them with iron rods.
The victims, who suffered various injuries, sought refuge at Ofori’s house but were pursued and further attacked by Ayambire and his group.
Odekor Lamptey was also assaulted during the incident. The victims reported the assaults to the Danchira Police and were issued medical forms for treatment.
Ayambire, who was arrested on August 7, 2023, following identification by Ofori at the Gbese District Court, initially evaded arrest and later declined to provide his address for further investigation.
