According to the constituency communication officer, Dwamena introduced some friends to a car dealer after successfully purchasing a vehicle from them.
The car dealer, after receiving payment, failed to deliver the vehicle, prompting the buyers to take the matter to court, leading to the parliamentary candidate’s remand.
The presiding judge, Her Ladyship Sophia Priscila Yeboa, has remanded the suspect into police custody, and the matter has been forwarded to the Attorney General’s Office for advice.
