Nicholas, 18, and one other teenager, Felix Nyarko, are standing trial for the murder of a 10-year-old boy, Ishmael Mensah Abdallah, at Kasoa.

According to reports, the two had killed Ishmael with the intention of using his body parts for money-making rituals (sakawa).

It was while reacting to the remand sentence that Nicholas' grandfather disclosed it to be the boy's second incident with the police within a few months.

In the interview, the disturbed grandfather revealed that Nicholas was once a good boy who liked to go to church.

He blamed his grandson's change in character on the effects of the bad company the boy has been keeping.

The funeral which is currently underway at Kasoa has seen many people in attendance.
