The State is set to file new charges against the founder and leader of Alive Chapel International, Prophet Elisha Salifu Amoako, his wife Moha, and a domestic worker, Linda Bempah, according to lawyers from the Attorney General’s office.

In court on Thursday, December 5, State Attorney Yaw Acquah disclosed that in light of evidence that has emerged during investigations, the state will amend the charges against the trio.

“At the last date, you ordered that we file further disclosures. The nature of the evidence that our investigators have compiled so far has made it necessary for us to amend the charge sheet before any further disclosures are made. In the circumstance, the prosecution prays for a short adjournment to allow us to put our house in order so that this court may proceed,” Acquah stated.

Lawyers for the accused did not oppose the plea for adjournment but requested that the case be heard in January 2025, as Prophet Salifu Amoako has engagements in the remaining weeks of the month.

Presiding Judge Samuel Bright Acquah, after hearing the statements, adjourned the hearing to January 13, 2025, for the State to amend the charges.

Prophet Salifu Amoako, his spouse, and the domestic help have been charged with granting permission to an unlicensed person to drive. They have all pleaded not guilty and are on a GH₵50,000 bail.

They were arrested after their 16-year-old son allegedly caused an accident in East Legon on October 12, 2024, leading to the death of two girls.

According to the prosecution, the minor drove a white Jaguar F-Pace Sports without a valid license, crashing into an Acura utility vehicle, which caught fire as a result, killing two 12-year-old girls in the process.
