General Overseer of Glorious Word Power Ministry International, Reverend Isaac Owusu Bempah, and two others have been re-arrested in court.

A video sighted by YEN.com.gh on Instagram showed that the man of God was arrested shortly after he was discharged by the Circuit court presided over by Her Honour Afia Owusua Appiah.

Reverend Owusu Bempah and some others were earlier arrested and charged with threat of death against Nana Agradaa now known as Evangelist Patricia Oduro Koranteng.

The General Overseer of Glorious Word Power Ministry International was discharged after the prosecution led by Chief Inspector Dennis Terkpetey prayed the court to discharge them of the earlier charges following the latest developments.
