Mona Gucci acquitted and discharged over fraud charge

Monalisa Abigail Semeha, known as Mona Gucci, has been acquitted and discharged by an Accra Circuit Court on charges of defrauding a trader of GHC103,400.

She was accused of collecting the money to secure U.S. visas for Comfort Obiri’s clients but failed to deliver. Charged with defrauding by false pretences, Mona Gucci pleaded not guilty.

The court, presided over by Mr. Isaac Addo, ruled that the case was a civil matter that went wrong.

The defence argued that the prosecution hadn’t established a solid case, leading to the submission of no case being upheld.

Consequently, Mona Gucci was acquitted and discharged.
