Former Ghana international, Prince Tagoe is in the grips of Police for allegedly defrauding a formal footballer, George Antwi Boateng.
This week, the Circuit Court in Accra presided over by His Honour Mr. Samuel Bright Acquah has remanded the ‘Prince of Goals’ into lawful custody until next year, January 4, 2023.
Tagoe who appeared in court pleaded not guilty to the charge of defrauding by false pretense of former footballer George Antwi Boateng to the sum of $40,000 dollars.
While his Counsel, Lawyer George Asamani would pray the court to admit the accused to bail, the Presiding Judge denied it.
His Honour Mr. Samuel Bright Acquah agreed to oppose the bail request after the prosecutor, Chief Inspector Agartha Abena Asantewaa argued that Prince Tagoe is a flight risk.
The former Hearts of Oak striker is now set to spend the Christmas period behind bars in Police custody.
