Aggrieved family members of the late Adam Mahama, on Tuesday stormed the court in Accra and allegedly attacked relatives of Afoko where Hajia Fati was spotted.
Though Hajia Fati has since been granted bail she told Citi News she never attacked anyone.
“They arrested me to the ministries Police station that have beaten his children so they should arrest me. One Cynthia Afoko and another lady reported that I have beaten them at the court. So they took me to the ministries Police station, they took my statement and then they said someone should bail me. And when that was done they said I should report to Tuesday again.”
“My charge was that I have beaten one Cynthia Afoko and another lady, I don’t know her name. Even that day when I went to the court, I didn’t even get closer to them,” she claimed.
