A Kumasi Circuit Court presided over

by Mr Eric Baah on Wednesday refused bail to Prince Adu-Gyamfi,

Proprietor and Agyenim Boateng, headmaster of Christ the King

School in Kumasi who failed to register 106 final year students in

this year's Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
They had pleaded not guilty to conspiracy and misappropriation

of GH¢25 they took from each of the candidates and were

remanded in prison custody to re-appear on Wednesday, May 6,

2009.
Their counsel, Mr Michael Kwabena Atta-Adjei's effort to

secure a bail failed because the police needed to conduct further

investigations.
Prosecuting, Police Chief Inspector Alice Ansah told the court

that, the accused persons collected monies from the candidates

under the pretext of registering them for the examinations although

they knew the school had not been accredited and lacked the

mandate to participate in the examinations.
She said, when the examinations begun, the candidates realised

they had not been registered and a report was made to the police

who arrested the accused persons.
Police Chief Inspector Ansah said an accomplice is on the run.
