Court officials slapped an elderly businessman with fraud charges after he allegedly pulled over three million dalasis from accounts that were not his. The dude pleaded innocent when magistrates read out accusations claiming he yanked cash from an Eco Bank account tied to JBM Financial Services and pocketed money meant for someone else.
Defense lawyers pushed for release while the prosecution asked for more time to round up witnesses, but did not fight against bail despite the massive amounts involved. Magistrates set bond at five million dalasis or property worth that much, and the case got pushed back for continuation after the holidays.
