The grandmother of Justine Agbenu, one of the girls who died in a car crash at East Legon, has broken her silence over the verdict delivered by the Family and Juvenile Court in Accra involving Bishop Elisha Salifu Amoako's son.
In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, the elderly woman in an interview lambasted the teenager, accusing him of having no empathy for the girls who passed away in the accident he caused.
She claimed that the 16-year-old's lack of empathy was evident at the beginning of the trial when he pleaded not guilty to all eight charges levelled against him.
"If you can do something like this and still plead not guilty, then it means you have no empathy. He even pleaded not guilty to driving without a license," she said with a sad look.
Bishop Salifu Amoako's son has been sentenced to six months at the Senior Correctional Centre.
The video had raked in over 100,000 views and 70 comments when writing the report.
