In addition to the fines, Abubakari Zaidu (Macharjia) was directed to pay GHS 500 to cover the victim’s medical expenses.

The court also ordered the three students to sign a 12-month bond of good behavior, with a default penalty of six months imprisonment with hard labour.

The case arose from a violent altercation at Salaga SHS, which resulted in one individual sustaining multiple stab wounds. Authorities later confiscated a locally manufactured pistol and ammunition used in the attack.
