A former Ghanaian Policeman, General Corporal Emmanuel Nyame, who jumped bail five years ago while on trial for allegedly defiling a 13-year-old girl, has been arrested at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA) upon his return from Dubai.
General Corporal Nyame was attached to the Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD).
He was reportedly dating the victim’s auntie at the time at Nsukwao, a suburb of New Juaben South Municipality.
He was initially arrested in 2019 and after his arrest, he was granted bail by the Koforidua Circuit Court “B” in the Eastern Region of Ghana, with his fianee’s two relatives standing surety for a bail bond of Ghc 40,000.
However, the former police officer jumped bail and went into hiding, allegedly deactivating his mobile phone numbers.
