Bishop Obinim Set Free By Court After Prosecution Failed To Prove Case In Ken Agyapong Forgery Allegations

Founder of the International Godsway Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim has been discharged by the Kaneshie District Court in the alleged forgery trial.

The controversial Bishop, who was standing trial along with one other person, were discharged by the Court presided by Her Honour Rosemond Dodua Agyiri.

The Court had to discharge the Bishop after the Prosecution requested to withdraw the charges.

Background

Bishop Obinim and Kwabena Okyere were separately put before a Kaneshie Magistrate Court in Accra and both charged with publication of false news and forgery of document contrary to Section 159 (c) of 29, 1960.

Apart from them, three others at large were facing four counts of conspiracy to publish false news, conspiracy to forge other documents, publication of false news, and forgery of documents.

They are alleged to have forged and published a police person’s wanted form for the arrest of one Isaac Opoku, a resident of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region.

The issue was first brought to the attention of the public by MP for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong on his Net2 TV Station at the height of his infamous beef with the bishop.
