The particulars of the case, which have found their way into the media, show Henry Fitz is being prosecuted with two others, Edem Saviour Ketti and Candylove Kwakyewaa Ababio.

Reacting to the case, renowned legal practitioner Martin Kpedu revealed that Fitz and his accomplices will not have it easy if found guilty.

Speaking on Peace FM in Accra, Lawyer Kpebu explained that Fitz could have faced a minimum of 10 years and a maximum of 25 years in prison for charges like extorting money from the GhOne TV news anchor.

"If Henry was to be charged for extorting money from Serwaa, he would have suffered a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 25 years imprisonment," Kpedu told Kwasi Aboagye.

However, Fitz's legal situation took a different turn as the police focused their charges for the release of Amihere's non-consensual release of Serwaa's private moments, rather than extortion.
