The Accra Circuit Court has adjourned the case of Wisdom Ahli, the second preacher arrested for allegedly damaging vehicle windscreens at Parliament, to January 14, 2025. Ahli, 41, appeared in court with his counsel.

The matter was heard in chambers, and it has been confirmed that the case has been adjourned.

On December 20, 2024, the court sentenced Ahli’s accomplice, Kofi Okyere Sorkpa, to five years in prison for damaging windscreens of five vehicles in the Parliament House car park.

Sorkpa, 33, was given three years for conspiracy and five years for causing damage, with sentences running concurrently.

Ahli remains in custody as investigations continue and his charge sheet is under review.

Both preachers, from Kasoa, sneaked into the Parliament car park on December 18, 2024, causing extensive damage.
